Step-by-Step Instructions
First things first, let’s prepare your avocados. I usually start by slicing my avocados in half and removing the pits with a spoon. Then, I scoop the green flesh into a large mixing bowl. The texture should be beautifully creamy and smooth. Next, I like to mash the avocado lightly with a fork or a potato masher. You want it to be smooth but still have a few chunks for that perfect guacamole texture. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
