If you only have one avocado in the fridge then you can make this guacamole recipe which serves 2. This guacamole is spicy, tangy and delicious but best of all, it is super quick and easy to prepare.
Avocados are one of my favourite foods which is why I’m in love with guacamole. Avocados are healthy and contain beneficial nutrients such as omega 6, fibre and many more. They contain good fats or healthy fats as they are sometimes known and making this guacamole will give you all these health benefits. This one avocado guacamole recipe makes a small batch of guacamole but you can easily double to recipe to make a larger batch.
What to serve with Guacamole?
You can serve guacamole with many different foods including party platters and sharing foods.
