Description
This super creamy easy Guacamole comes together in 5 minutes. Perfect for topping tacos or dip for tortilla chips and crudites. Or on toast for breakfast of course. Try it topped with cheese and spring onions for a weird but wonderful sandwich.
All you need is a food processor or hand blender, to puree the avocados into a cream.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 Avocados (ripe)
- 1 Lemon (or 3 limes. Juiced.)
- 1-2 cloves of fresh garlic
- 1/2-1 tsp Ancho chili powder (or any type of chili you enjoy. Any amount too. Your Guac, your choice)
- 1 tsp kosher salt. Or more to taste
Instructions
- Half the avocados and turn the halves to opposite sides to open.
- Since we don’t need picture perfect avocado slices here, you can save yourself the risk of the “Avocado Hand” (It’s a thing. You can actually google it) and simply press onto both sides of the avocado half with the stone, to just plop it out.
- Spoon the flesh into your food processor or a high sided container for blending.
- Peel the garlic, slice roughly, if you can be bothered
- Squeeze in the lemon juice, catching the pips with your hand. Or use a lemon press if you have one.
- Top with salt and chili.
- Process to the consistency you enjoy, making sure the garlic is properly pureed.
- Serve your healthy dip with any crudites you find in your fridge. And of course, tortilla chips.

The Easy Guacamole keeps in the fridge in a glass container with lid for about 3-4 days. The lemon juice prevents ot from going brown. The fact that it’s thoroughly mixed with the avocados helps.
This makes it fantastic for food prep and to have a healthy butter alternative in your fridge.
