Thanks to this easy guacamole recipe, you don’t have to worry about any of that. This recipe is so simple to follow, and it yields delicious guacamole every time. So go ahead and give it a try – your friends and family will thank you!
Guacamole is a savory dip or spread originating in Mexico, typically made from mashed avocado, lime juice, onions, and spices. It is often used as a condiment or side dish.
No, this delicious snack is actually quite easy to make. All you need are some ripe avocados and some salsa.
There are many things you can add to guacamole to give it more flavor or texture. Some common additions include tomatoes, cilantro, jalapeños, and cheese.
Yes, you can make guacamole ahead of time. Just be sure to store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve it.
Guacamole will last in the refrigerator for up to two days. After that, it will start to brown and won’t be as fresh-tasting. To delay the browning process, add a spritz of either lemon or lime juice on top.
Yes, this is healthy. Avocados are a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They’re also low in calories and bad fats – but loaded with the good fats your body needs.
To keep guacamole from turning brown, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You can also add a little lime juice or lemon juice to help prevent browning.
I have found that if you have a sliced avocado, you can wet it with water and then place the plastic wrap directly on top of it and store it in the refrigerator. This has worked quite well for us.
I have not tried it with guacamole because the texture isn’t smooth. The idea is that the water creates a layer that keeps air from getting to the avocado – which is what turns it brown. I would imagine if you tried to add a layer of water to the top of a bowl of guacamole, it would dilute and ruin it.
You could try just spraying the top of it with a mist of water and then placing the plastic wrap directly on top. If you give this a try – please let me know how it worked.
Avocados turn brown when they’re exposed to air. This is why it’s important to store this recipe in an airtight container.
The best way to ripen an avocado is to leave it on the counter at room temperature. Once it’s ripe, you can store it in the refrigerator to help prevent browning.
When it comes to recipes like this we like to have a full spread. Here are some of the other recipes we include on our appetizer table.
Yes, you can use frozen avocado for guacamole. Just be sure to thaw it first and mash it well before adding it to the other ingredients.

This is the best and easiest way to make Turkey Gravy. It’s the perfect Thanksgiving, Christmas, or holiday side dish to pair with turkey.
Turkey gravy is a classic Thanksgiving dish that is easy to make and can be tailored to your taste. In this recipe, we will show you how to make a basic turkey gravy using pan drippings and flour.
You can add additional ingredients such as herbs, onions, or mushrooms to give your gravy a personal touch. This recipe is perfect for those who are new to making gravy – it’s simple and straightforward. So let’s get started!
If there’s one thing that can make Thanksgiving dinner even better, it’s gravy. This easy turkey gravy recipe is perfect for making ahead of time, so you can focus on the rest of the meal.
But honestly, you don’t have to wait for the holiday season to make this gravy recipe. I like having gravy on a multitude of recipes throughout the year – so we make this all of the time.
You won’t believe how simple it is to make from scratch. No pre-packaged envelope full of additives and preservatives. This recipe is so much better!
Turkey gravy is a type of sauce made from turkey or chicken stock, butter, flour, and sometimes other ingredients.
Making your gravy in advance is a great way to save time on Thanksgiving Day. Not only will it save you time, but it will also ensure that your gravy is perfectly cooked and flavorful. (keep in mind that it can be difficult to use the drippings for this recipe ahead of time if you are not cooking the turkey until several days later)
There are a few things to keep in mind when making your gravy in advance. First, make sure that all of your ingredients are fresh. This will help to ensure that your gravy is flavorful and tasty.
Second, cook the gravy completely before storing it. This will prevent any bacteria from growing and will also help to keep the flavor intact.
Finally, store the gravy in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days or in the freezer for up to three months.
When you are ready to serve the gravy, simply reheat it in a small saucepan or in the microwave until it is hot and bubbly.
A roux is a combination of fat and flour used while cooking to make a thickened sauce or gravy. A classic roux recipe contains equal parts butter to flour (1/4 cup butter to 1/4 cup four).
Since our turkey gravy is a roux gravy, keep in mind it will continue to thicken as it cools. If it has thickened too much, just add a little more liquid before it hits the table.
Generally, gravy made with pan drippings does not need any more seasonings as all of those pan juices contain all the salt, pepper, and flavor. It’s important to taste-test it once it’s done and save adding any extra seasoning at the end.
If you don’t have the turkey drippings on hand, don’t worry! You can still make delicious gravy without it.
Replace the drippings in the recipe with chicken or turkey stock. You may need to add more seasonings at the end since the stock doesn’t have all of the flavors that the drippings would add to the finished gravy recipe.
If you want to make a gluten-free gravy, you can substitute the flour for gluten-free flour. This will change the texture of the gravy, but it will still be delicious.
If you want to make a dairy-free gravy, you can substitute the butter with lard or bacon grease. This will change the flavor of the gravy, but it will still be delicious.
There are a few things you can do to thicken your gravy. If it is too thick, add broth a tablespoon or two at a time. If it is too thin, mix one tablespoon of melted butter with one tablespoon of flour and whisk into the gravy. Now, if it is lumpy, use your strainer!
In my opinion, gravy goes with just about anything. However – you don’t want to miss the other holiday side dishes linked further down in this post. But if you want the VERY BEST turkey and main dish holiday recipes – be sure to check these out too!
If you have any turkey gravy left over after your feast, it can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. Simply place it in a covered container or jar and pop it in the fridge. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, simply reheat it gently over low heat while whisking occasionally to prevent the sauce from breaking.
You can also freeze your turkey gravy for up to three months. Again, place it in a covered container or jar and then into the freezer. When you’re ready to use it, thaw overnight in the fridge and then reheat gently as mentioned above.
Yes, that should work. You might end up with a slightly different texture. Also, you may end up needing to add more liquid or more cornstarch to reach the right consistency.

A good Pear Butter Recipe is a must for fall, and is just perfect for your morning toast! This recipe is simple to make – just toss it all in the slow cooker! Not only is it delicious, but it makes the house smell incredible while it cooks!
If you’re looking for an easy, delicious way to use up pears, give this pear butter recipe a try! Making your own pear butter is easier than you might think!
This recipe only requires a few simple ingredients, and it’s perfect for Fall. You can make it using a slow cooker or on the stovetop – and it’s perfect for spreading on toast or serving with pancakes. Plus, it makes a great gift idea for the holidays!
If you’re like me, you love finding creative ways to use up leftover fruit. And if you’re also like me, you always seem to have an abundance of pears on hand.
So today I’m excited to share my recipe for homemade pear butter! It’s easy to make and the perfect spread for toast, muffins, or even pancakes. Give it a try and let me know what you think!
Pear butter is a type of fruit butter made from pears. It is similar to apple butter but has a more intense flavor due to the higher sugar content of pears.
Pear butter can be made by cooking down pears with sugar and spices until it forms a thick, spreadable paste.
Making pear butter is a great way to use up excess pears, and it makes for a delicious spread on toast or muffins. This recipe uses just a few simple ingredients and can be easily adapted to your own taste.
So if you’re looking for something new to do with those extra pears, give pear butter a try!
This recipe can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or frozen for up to 6 months. To store, place the pear butter in a clean, airtight container and keep it in the fridge.
To freeze, place the pear butter in a freezer-safe container and label it with the date.
When choosing pears for your Star Spiced Pear Butter recipe, you want to make sure that you select pears that are ripe but not overripe. The best way to tell if a pear is ripe is to gently press on the fruit with your thumb.
If the pear yields to the pressure, it is ripe and ready to use. If the pear feels hard or unyielding, it is not yet ripe and should be left to ripen further.
Once you have selected your pears, you will need to peel and core them. The easiest way to do this is to cut the pears in half lengthwise and then use a spoon or melon baller to scoop out the seeds and core.
Once your pears are peeled and cored, they are ready to be used in your Pear Butter recipe.
You don’t need to peel the pears for this recipe.
If you have made too much pear butter or simply want to save some for later, freezing it is a great option! Pear butter can last in the freezer for up to 6 months.
To freeze, simply place the pear butter in an airtight container or freezer bag. Make sure to leave some headspace in the container so that the pear butter has room to expand as it freezes.
When you are ready to use the frozen pear butter, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight. Once thawed, stir well before using. The texture of the pear butter may change slightly after freezing and thawing, but it will still be delicious!
Once it has been cooked, ladle it into clean, sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch of headspace. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, then screw on the lids and rings.
Place the jars in your pressure canner, making sure that they are covered by at least an inch of water. Process at 10 pounds of pressure for 10 minutes for half-pint or pint jars, or 15 minutes for quart jars. Let the pressure come down naturally before opening the canner and removing the jars.
Let the jars cool undisturbed for 12 hours before checking the seals and storing in a cool, dark place.
Pour the pear butter into jars and seal them with lids. Place the jars in a water bath canner and process them for 10 minutes.
Pear butter is a type of fruit spread or preserve made from cooked pears. It is similar to apple butter in taste and texture, although it may be slightly thinner in consistency. Pear butter is often spiced with cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
Most pear butter recipes are vegan, as they do not contain any animal-derived ingredients. However, some brands may add honey or other sweeteners that are not vegan-friendly. Be sure to check the ingredients list before purchasing pear butter to make sure it meets your dietary needs.
Pear butter is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of recipes. Here are some ideas on how to use pear butter in your cooking:
