    What Is The Primary Ingredient In Keto Guacamole:

    So, whether you’re talking our Keto Guacamole recipe, or just Guacamole in general, the primary ingredient is avocado.

    This explains why guacamole is so good for you! A third of a medium avocado contains just 80 calories and almost 20 vitamins and minerals. It is an extremely nutrient dense fruit and the only fruit with healthy mono-saturated fat.

    This article from healthline.com tell you about 12 proven health benefits of avocado.

    Is Guacamole OK on Keto?

    Absolutely YES! Avocado is a Low-Carb and Keto superstar! The main ingredients in guacamole, avocado, is very low in carbs and potent in nutrients. You really can’t go wrong. So, if you’re on a Keto diet, bring on ALLL the guacamole!

    Our Keto Guacamole recipe contains just BLA calories and BLA net carbs per serving.

    How Do You Make Keto Guacamole From Scratch?

    Forget about store-bought guacamole. Please. Guacamole is not only ridiculously easy to make, but tastes infinitely better than store-bought varieties.

    The Ingredients You Need:

    1. Avocado
    2. Red Onion (finely chopped)
    3. Roma Tomato (deseed and finely chopped)
    4. Minced Garlic
    5. Cilantro (roughly chopped)
    6. Fresh Lime Juice
    7. Salt and Pepper
    8. Pickled Jalapeños (optional, finely chopped)

    Step-By-Step Instructions:

    step by step instructions for how to make keto guacamole
    1. Add all the ingredients to a mixing bowl.
    2. Stir and mash with a fork until it reaches your desired consistency. (We prefer a pretty chunky guacamole. Especially if we’re planning to use it as a dip.)
    3. Serve and enjoy!

    How Long Does Guacamole Last?

    Keto guacamole is best eaten as fresh as possible. The lime juice in the guacamole, however, does serve as a “preservative” of sorts, but it’s not enough to make it last significantly long.

    If I make too much guacamole or prepare some ahead of time, this is the best way to keep it fresh:

    1. Press the guacamole down into a bowl,
    2. Take a piece of plastic wrap and press it down onto the top surface of the guacamole. The idea here is to limit air exposure as much as possible.

    That being said, if you follow my tip the guacamole will still only be good for a maximum of two days when kept refrigerated.

    If it has browned a little bit from oxidation, it is still good to eat. Although, the flavor will be impacted and be more bitter than fresh guacamole.
