Your Vitamix can help you make better guac, faster
You can make homemade guacamole by hand. Absolutely.
But if you have a Vitamix, you can let it do the chopping for you and make a huge batch of restarante-style guacamole very quickly.
And isn’t restarante style guac just the best?
Homemade guac in a hurry
One shortcut to homemade guac is just add salt. Nothing else.
That works in a pinch.
But if you want to make real, irresistible, restarante-style guac, you need to add chopped or minced everything:
- Garlic
- Tomatoes
- Onions
- Hot peppers
- Cilantro
Now, if you like doing that by hand (with a chef’s knife), you probably don’t need to use your Vitamix. If the avocados are ripe, you should be able to mix everything with a fork.
The real value of using your Vitamix to make guacamole is letting it do the chopping for you. (Similar to how we do for our detox salad.)
Drop all the extras in and pulse on low speed for a few seconds. Then, add your avocados.
Another few seconds on low speed and you’re done.
No chopping. No mixing.
Not a bad excuse to use your Vitamix.
Go make yourself a batch of guacamole (with the help of your Vitamix) today!
