Tip

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

We found this guacamole to be rather bland -- wished I'd bought more jalepeno peppers. I don't like things hot and spicy normally, but this needed more kick. The mayonnaise was the prominent flavor.
