Notes
Note: Homemade guacamole is best served the first day.
Extra mix-in's: For spice, add in a little cumin, chili powder, or chopped jalapenos. Sometimes I add 1 to 2 Tablespoons of cotija or feta cheese for extra flavor.
Storage: Avocado pits will keep the guacamole from browning. Add them on top of the guac, then cover tightly with plastic wrap. Store in fridge until ready to eat.
