• avocados – ripe

Can I make guacamole ahead of time?

Yes, you can make guacamole ahead of time. Just be sure to store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve it.

How long does guacamole last?

Guacamole will last in the refrigerator for up to two days. After that, it will start to brown and won’t be as fresh-tasting. To delay the browning process, add a spritz of either lemon or lime juice on top.

Is guacamole healthy?

Yes, this is healthy. Avocados are a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They’re also low in calories and bad fats – but loaded with the good fats your body needs.

How to Make Easy Guacamole

1. Place the avocados in a small bowl and mash them with a fork.
2. Stir the salsa into the mashed avocado until well blended.
3. Serve with tortilla chips.

How to keep guacamole from turning brown?

To keep guacamole from turning brown, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You can also add a little lime juice or lemon juice to help prevent browning.

I have found that if you have a sliced avocado, you can wet it with water and then place the plastic wrap directly on top of it and store it in the refrigerator. This has worked quite well for us.

I have not tried it with guacamole because the texture isn’t smooth. The idea is that the water creates a layer that keeps air from getting to the avocado – which is what turns it brown. I would imagine if you tried to add a layer of water to the top of a bowl of guacamole, it would dilute and ruin it.

You could try just spraying the top of it with a mist of water and then placing the plastic wrap directly on top. If you give this a try – please let me know how it worked.

Why do avocados turn brown?

Avocados turn brown when they’re exposed to air. This is why it’s important to store this recipe in an airtight container.

What is the best way to ripe an avocado?

The best way to ripen an avocado is to leave it on the counter at room temperature. Once it’s ripe, you can store it in the refrigerator to help prevent browning.
