You will never need to buy guacamole again once you learn how fast and easy it is to make your own in less than 5 minutes. With just a couple of ingredients and a couple pulses of the blender, you have your own Homemade Blender Guacamole to top enchiladas, dips, tacos and tostadas. Taco Tuesday will never be the same.
This recipe is very flexible. You should adjust the ingredients to your liking so if you like a bit more cilantro or jalapeno, add it in. The basics of how to make this is here for you to take it out and spin it how you and your family likes it. Either way, it will be done in 5 minutes. I am sure your tacos aren’t done yet in that time.
🥗 Ingredients
You’ll be asking yourself why you haven’t been making homemade guacamole this entire time after you taste it! Here are the main ingredients you need:
Avocados: Of course, you need some ripe and delicious avocados. You can’t have guac without them. 😉
Garlic: A little bit of garlic kicks up the flavor a few notches. We usually use 2 cloves, but you can add more if you want.
Jalapeno: We only use half of the jalapeno so it’s not too spicy. If you like a lot of heat, go ahead and add more.
⏲️ Instructions
Step 1: Remove the pit and peel the avocado. Place it inside of the blender.
Step 2: Add in the jalapeno, onion, garlic, salt, and fresh lime juice.
Step 3: Pulse the blender. Continue until you reach the desired texture.
Step 4: Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and enjoy!
🥑 How to Choose the Best Avocados
Choose the avocado that will be ripe when you want to use it. If you are making a good guac dip that day, choose one that is fairly soft to the touch when you squeeze it. That is the best indicator that it is ripe. A more firm avocado will ripen on the counter, but it will take another few days. It can be hard to time them, but try it a few times and you’ll get the hang of it.
🥄 How to Stop Guacamole from Turning Brown?
I use plastic wrap on top of guacamole to slow down the browning process. Press it gently on top of the guacamole to keep it fresh and limit the exposure to air.
Drizzle a little lemon juice or olive oil on top of the homemade guac as well. That will help.
🧅 Storage
You can store guacamole in the refrigerator 2 days or until it starts to turn brown. After a couple of days, it browns too much and should be thrown out. But hey! Who doesn’t eat all of their guac in one sitting, right?
❔ Can I use a Food Processor Instead of a Blender?
Absolutely! Just use the pulse button for the most control. You are looking for the texture that you like. I like my guacamole pretty chunky but I have friends who choose a smoother texture. Both taste great!
