The great guacamole experiment: preview


I enjoy guacamole. Over the past year or so, Fred and I have been enjoying it most every day.




Aside from using it as a dip — tortilla chips are a fine match — I like to spread guacamole on wraps. Fred goes further, slapping it on bread, plopping it down as a side to rice or other vegetables, or slurping spoonfuls of guacamole all on its lonesome. 
Avocados, the principal ingredient, are a grand source of vitamins (B6, C, K), folic acid, copper, potassium and fiber. Guacamole is also vegan, something that seems more in fashion with each passing day.

To this point, we have always bought the stuff, pre-made. It's a must-have on our grocery list. However, my friends tell me that guacamole is simple to prepare. Economical, too.

So ... to test this, I have armed myself with research and gathered ingredients.

Tomorrow will tell just how simple and economical homemade guacamole actually is. Stay tuned.
