About this Recipe:
Guacamole is a very healthy and delicious Mexican dip. It is also a great topping or even a side dish. The real trick to delicious guacamole is to use ripe and good quality avocados. Basically the main ingredients that you need to make a fresh batch of guacamole are avocados, lemon juice and salt. Lemon is added for both the flavor and also to prevent discoloring of avocados. You can add chili or jalapeno pepper if you want your guacamole to have some kick.
