COOKING WITH CAITLIN'S Avocado Whip

Despite the fact that this is perhaps the girliest guacamole ever, to the men out there, try it. I guarantee you that it is extremely tasty. And, I am going to venture to say that any guy that can explain that he "whipped the avocado into stiff peaks" will impress any girl.Submitted by: DAILYSPARKGUEST

I made this for the fam for Cinco De Mayo last night along with my own guac. It was a bit bland for my taste so I added some cumin, red pepper flakes and a bit more salt. I also strained it before serving as I noted it was runny and it was. Will make again my way. - 5/6/21

This was very yummy! I used your recipe more as a guideline, I didn't measure any ingredients and used milder peppers. My 3.5 year old daughter ate this with a spoon right out of the food processor! I had to take it away so my husband can have some when he gets home! Thanks for the recipe! - 10/27/09

Sounds interesting. Thankyou. I'll have to try this soon. My family likes a mango salsa that I make for Salmon, so I know they like the sweet savory salsas. - 7/20/09
