Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Cut avocado in half lengthwise, remove the pit by striking it with a knife blade, then scoop flesh directly into a bowl to minimize browning.
Juice the lime directly over the guacamole and fold immediately—acid prevents oxidation and keeps the color vibrant.
Blend the smoothie on high speed for 45–60 seconds until frozen spinach and ice fully incorporate; chunky texture indicates under-blending.
For poolside serving, prepare the guacamole in a shallow bowl and top with extra cherry tomato and red onion just before guests arrive.

Substitutions

cherry tomatoes → diced cucumber (refreshes the guacamole without extra acidity)
frozen spinach → fresh kale or frozen peas (similar nutrition; adjust ice if using fresh greens)
banana → 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or 1/2 frozen mango (alters sweetness and texture slightly)

Storage & make-ahead

Cover guacamole with plastic wrap pressed onto the surface; refrigerate up to 2 hours. Smoothie is best consumed immediately but may be refrigerated up to 4 hours with separation.

Equipment

blender · citrus juicer (optional but recommended)

Common Questions

Can I make the guacamole ahead of time?

Yes, but assemble just before serving. Store lime-coated avocado in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface to prevent browning; use within 2 hours.
