This Avocado Mash has a creamy texture, delicious flavor, and comes together in a couple minutes so you can get your avocado fix anytime! It's a cross between an avocado crema and guacamole. The perfect spread to serve with veggies or tortilla chips, make the best avocado toast, or add to tacos or fajita bowls!
Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Mash the avocado in a small bowl.
Add the lemon juice, Greek yogurt, garlic powder, salt & pepper. Mix to combine.
Hint: Remember you can always add salt but can't take it away! Start with just a small pinch and add more to taste.
Notes
Expert Tips
Be sure to use a ripe avocado. Give it a gentle squeeze and if it is slightly soft, it is ready to use.
I suggest to mash the avocado first before adding the other ingredients. You can do this with a fork or use a potato masher to make it even easier.
Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for best results. Lemon juice from a bottle just doesn't taste quite as fresh.
Storage
Refrigerator - store the leftover avocado mash in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. Add a layer of plastic wrap on top of the mixture to prevent browning.
