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 made this for our dip contest at work, and it was a big hit! I won first place and the coveted Golden Spoon award! my son said it was the 'bomb'... for the taco seasoning i used the hot and spicy.. gave it just the right amount of kick! have made it a couple more times since, and will make again!

I took the advice and used a Spicy Taco seasoning instead of the regular and it made a huge difference in the punch of flavor.
