84 Reviews of Guacamole With Sour Cream

Just a tip I saw on T.V., to be sure that you get a nice green avacado, peek under that little stem.. if it's bright green, the avacado is good.. if its black, then the avacado will have black spots inside. My guacamole is made almost exactly like yours, minus the olives, so I'm sure that it's great!

    My first time to make guacamole; I had no idea how easy it was! I also had thought that guacamole had unhealthy ingredients to make it yummy--but this is a winner. I didn't have cilantro or olives, but it was still great. I like the versatility of this recipe. I put everything together in my little chopper, and in a minute I had perfect guacamole. DH loved it, too...2nd review: still good as ever; this time my 3yo gobbled it up! Excellent!

    Good basic dip. Followed the directions, except for the black olives and lemon juice. Test tasted it and found that the flavor needed to be kicked up a few notches. I added some chili powder, more onions and tomatoes and more sour cream to give a creamer texture. I also added some salt. The flavors really need to blend and the best way to keep the guacamole from turning brown is to add the pit into the dip. You won't need to add the lemon juice or lime juice if you add the pit and then remove it before serving.

    Very good recipe if you prefer creamy guacamole. I would halve the amount of sour cream next time. I didn't add olives or tomatoes to mine.

    This was also my first attempt at guacamole and it was wonderful. I put my through my food processor to where it was just chunky. DH said it was better than any restaurant guacamole he'd ever had. I'll be sure to add this to my list of great recipes.

    Having lived in Phoenix, Az for 20 years I've become very partial to Mexican food. This is "my kind" of recipe. I love it, versatile, yet delicious and easy to prepare. I'll be experimenting with it constantly to suit my daily tastebuds.

    This is fantastic! I would have never thought to add black olives to guacamole, but it really gives it pizazz. The only thing I changed was to substitute sour cream with plain non-fat yogurt for a healthier option. I also used both lime and lemon juice instead of one or the other.
