Use a cup of the Fresh Tomato Salsa to make this easy guacamole. Mash a few avocados, stir in lemon juice and you're done! Guacamole will turn brown if allowed to sit and is best made shortly before serving.



READER'S COMMENT:
"If you put the avocado pit in with the dip to store it, it will not turn brown. "
