World’s Easiest Guacamole

I love guacamole.

Until Little Brother arrived on the scene, I was, alas, the only avocado-lover at the Yankee Homestead.  So sad.

I made guacamole only for guests, because I was incapable of eating a whole batch on my own.

Now I can whip up a small batch and even Mr. Native Texan will pitch in and eat some!  Older Brother’s still holding out, but in time I hope he too will come to appreciate the Amazing Avocado.

Update: Baby Bro has joined the ranks of avocado fans at my house.  Hooray!

What’s so amazing about the avocado?

Avocados contain good fats and nutrients known to:

  • Prevent heart disease
  • Increase nutrient absorption
  • Prevent aging
  • Prevent cataracts
  • Contribute to healthy skin and hair
  • Improve diabetic conditions
  • Maintain healthy weight
  • Enhance the immune system
  • Benefit overall health

I use avocados for so many purposes: as a substitute for mayo and sour cream, on soups and salads and sandwiches, and of course, in guacamole!  Below is my go-to recipe.
