Notes
For best results, use ripe avocados that are slightly soft to the touch.
To prevent browning, press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the spread before sealing the container.
Customize the recipe by adding ingredients like diced tomatoes, onions, or even a dollop of Greek yogurt for creaminess.
