THE BEST GUACAMOLE EVER | easy recipe for fresh homemade guacamole

Guacamole! Did you know that over 2 billion pounds of avocados are eaten in the US each year? (Google it.) That’s over 7 pounds per person. I’m guessing most of those avocados go into America’s favorite dip: guacamole.

The word "guacamole" and the dip both originate from Mexico where avocados have been cultivated for thousands of years. The name is derived from two Aztec Nahuatl words: ahuacatl (avocado) and molli (sauce).

All you really need to make guacamole is ripe avocados and salt. Then a little lime or lemon juice — a dash of acid — will help balance out the richness of the avocado. If you like add chopped cilantro chili onion and/or tomato.
