Homemade vs. Store-Bought: Guacamole
I love guacamole. I can eat a whole bowl, which is more than any human being should eat, in one sitting! Last week, I did just that. I know. It is a terrible confession. When it comes to guacamole, I like mine fresh. Store-bought isn't high on my list of preferences.
I didn't do a full price comparison, but I do know store-bought costs more than I want to pay for something that I just don't really care for! I picked up my avocadoes for $1.98 and the tomato and onion were another $1.00. So, $3.00 for homemade...not too bad!
Here is my attempt at fresh guacamole:
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1/4 c. sweet onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 c. tomato, diced
- Salt to taste
Directions:
- Peel avocado and mash avaocado to desired consistency
- Add onion and tomato
- Add salt to taste
- Serve immediately with your favorite chips, crackers, or veggies
Many recipes call for lime juice and a few spices. I like mine just plain!
