I love guacamole! But I add beans to boost the amount of fiber in this version. It has a similar consistency to hummus and is perfect for dipping chips, pita or veggies. —Raquel Haggard, Edmond, Oklahoma

Keep Guacamole Fresh

I like to make guacamole ahead of time for my favorite chicken quesadillas. I’ve found that if the avocado pit is added to the guacamole and the dish is covered, the guacamole retains its pretty, green color. —Pam Ubl, Coon Rapids, Minnesota

I had this recipe for about 5 months and I made this dip about 10 times now. It is a great snack...can't stop at just a few bites. Brought it to a work potluck and everyone wanted the recipe.

Followed this recipe and used cannellini beans. It is such a satisfying dip. The lime juice and cilantro is the perfect amount. The only reason I didn't give it a 5-star rating is because I don't think it needs 1/4 teaspoon of salt. I think the salt should be "to taste."
