Recipe Instructions:
- Start by gathering all your ingredients: ripe avocados, Ro-Tel tomatoes, cream cheese, and a lime.
- Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
- Mash the avocados with a fork until you achieve your desired consistency. Some prefer chunky guacamole, while others prefer it smoother.
- Squeeze the juice of the lime over the mashed avocado. This not only adds flavor but also helps prevent browning.
- Add the Ro-Tel tomatoes to the bowl. These provide a burst of flavor and a hint of heat.
- Measure out the cream cheese and add it to the bowl. This may seem like an unconventional ingredient, but it adds a creamy richness that takes this guacamole to the next level.
- Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Serve immediately with your favorite restaurant-style tortilla chips for dipping.
Recipe Notes:
- To prevent the guacamole from turning brown if not eating right away, place the avocado seeds in the dip. This helps slow down the oxidation process.
- Another trick to keep your guacamole looking fresh is to place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the dip, pressing it down to remove any air pockets. When you’re ready to serve, simply peel off the plastic wrap, and any discoloration will come off with it, leaving you with vibrant, delicious guacamole.
This recipe is a testament to the fact that sometimes the simplest ingredients can come together to create something truly extraordinary. With just a few pantry staples and a little bit of know-how, you can whip up a batch of guacamole that will have everyone coming back for more. Whether you’re hosting a party or simply craving a snack, this recipe is sure to satisfy. Enjoy!
