Instructions

  1. Mash the avocado in a medium bowl with a fork.

Notes

  • For a Whole30/Paleo/low-carb meal, serve on lettuce wraps or eat plain.
  • Storage: Store in the fridge for up to 5 days in a bowl with plastic wrap pressed down on the surface, and a squeeze of extra lime juice if you want. This will help prevent the avocado from browning.
  • For a richer taste, mix a little mayo in with the avocado.
