I like a creamy gauc, so I add sour cream & mayo.  Along with seasoning, some times diced tomatoes and bacon!

I made chips for some Guac yesterday.  Next time I make them I will fry for tacos!

Do you make your own Guac? I bought some avocados and made some, first time, just avocado, salt, pepper, lime juice, and a few cloves of garlic. It was good but missing something.

A little heat.  Diced jalapenos will do the trick.
Also Cilantro, diced onion, and diced Roma tomatoes work well.

Thanks for the suggestions. All sound good I had though about some sour cream, will probably leave out the cilantro as not a fan of it, a small amount may be okay I guess, it is kind of up there with sage in my sausage, rather have it without.

I will have to buy a few more and and a couple jalapeno and try again. I still have some in the fridge I made last weekend. I am the only one that will eat it, so having a chamber sealer I thought I would try to seal up some portions one to try to keep it, and two to se if it would turn brown on me. So far it has not.

Try throwing the pit in with the guac. before sealing and freezing.  Same if you only use 1/2 of an avocado, leave the pit in the 1/2 you put in the fridge in plastic.

The pit certainly helps as does the lime juice.  You can also put some cumin in to make it more authentic.  At least here we do.  I tend to put too much because I like it so my wife does the seasoning.  Sometimes I sneak some more in ;)

I have used sour cream on occasion, makes it smoother.

Do you make your own Guac? I bought some avocados and made some, first time, just avocado, salt, pepper, lime juice, and a few cloves of garlic. It was good but missing something.

Try adding some Herdez salsa and green onions. This, along with changing lime to lemon juice and you have my recipe. I would also use limes but I always have lemon juice in the refrigerator.

I also add chopped roma tomatoes.

I find that Herdez is really good for making things like guacamole and bean dip. It is not my preference when I am using it by itself.

I have shown my guacamole in my posts on air fryer taquitos.

As I mentioned on my earlier post, I do not like sour cream in guacamole. I like a smashed avocado consistency rather than a creamy consistency. The same for mashed potatoes.

It is all a matter of taste. There are many ways to make it.

There is a discussion of my guacamole later in this thread. https://pelletfan.com/index.php?topic=6919.msg72095#msg72095

My wife makes it with the Rotel tomatoes and chiles.  I like the hot and she prefers the mild so I buy the mild since she is making it.  I'll try to see what she does the next time we make some.  I know she adds cumin to it but I don't know what else.
