Avocado Dip Tips: 🥑
- To keep guacamole from browning, press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dip before refrigerating.
- For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a splash of hot sauce to either dip.
- Both dips can be customized with additional ingredients like diced red bell pepper or chopped green onions.
