Exceptional

I've been looking for a nice and easy Guac recipe - one that could be made for a quick appetizer - knowing that it doesn't... last for a long time - what a wonderful surprise in this one. Thanks EmerilRead more

Very Easy, Very Fresh
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This guacamole tasted very fresh! The lemon juice contributed to the fresh factor, and made it have a lemony flavor. Keep the... pit in the guacamole to have it not brown, and have it last longer.Read more

I used Roasted Garlic instead of raw minced garlic
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I love this recipe, it's easy. I used roasted garlic instead of raw garlic, it was a big hit, it still had the goood garlic... taste but nobody had to worry about getting bits of garlic in their mouth. I have also tried using onion powder instead of raw onion because i have kids whom refuse to eat onions. I used a teaspoon but you can add or subtract as much as you want, it all depends on your taste. Read more

This is a Keeper!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this last night, and as a novice in the kitchen I was very pleased with it - both the ease to make and the taste. My... husband loved it and even our company that doesn't generally like guacamole liked it! I will definitely make this again.Read more
