Some tips Mash the avacados with the salt and lime prior to the other ingredients. It helps to meld the flavors, and prevents the guacamole from going brown Choose blemish-free avocados which when squeezed lightly feel juicy. Add lot of lime juice which not only make it delicious but also keeps it from turning brown. You can have it with warm tortillas. Use red onions which are more delicious and healthy (IMO)
