Is Avocado Spread The Same As Guacamole?
This avocado spread may be similar to a classic guacamole, but there are a few key differences. Authentic guacamole is usually loaded with fresh cilantro, red onion, and sometimes diced tomatoes, whereas an avocado spread is simply mashed avocado.
How to Store Avocado Spread
Avocados are known for going brown fast, and here are our pro tips for keeping avocado spread fresh in the refrigerator for as long as possible!
- Keep the pit! Yes, it actually works! Keeping the pit in the avocado spread container helps keep the spread fresh and green.
- Tight seal. You’ll want to use an airtight container for this avocado spread. Keeping the avocado spread from air exposure is key to keeping it fresh longer.
- Extra lemon juice. Before storing the avocado spread, give the spread an extra squeeze of lemon juice and don’t mix it in. This keeps the surface from browning and makes the spread taste great.
How to Make Avocado Spread
- In a bowl, mash the avocados with a fork until they reach your preferred consistency. I like to leave mine a little chunky.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Serve as a sandwich spread or enjoy as a dip.
Ways to Use Avocado Spread
- Avocado toastie: Toast your favorite slice of bread and top with a generous amount of avocado spread. But don’t stop there because the toppings are the best part. A drizzle of hot honey, red pepper flakes, a dash of everything-but-the-bagel seasoning, or some pickled onions are all great ways to enjoy a classic toastie.
- Burger: A layer of avocado spread in a homemade burger is next-level delicious!
- Sandwich: Add avocado spread to a stacked club sandwich for a tasty lunch! Serve with a side of garlic-truffle fries for a complete meal!
- Tacos: Use this spread as a delicious taco topping for homemade chicken tacos.
- Dip: Serve this avocado dip with crackers, tortilla chips, and vegetables for a delicious homemade dip.
