- If you like a bit of heat, add a finely chopped jalapeño or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- To keep the guacamole from browning, store it in an airtight container with a piece of plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface of the guacamole.
- Mash the avocado chunks to your desired texture – some prefer it chunky while others like it smooth.
- Adjust the seasoning to taste by adding more lime juice, salt, or black pepper as needed.
