Tips:
- For a smoother guacamole, use a food processor or blender to mix the ingredients.
- If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro instead.
- To keep guacamole from browning, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will last for up to 2 days.
- Guacamole is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a dip, a spread, or a topping.
