Step 1
Prepare the avocados
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl or blender.
Step 2
Blend the dip
Add lime juice, garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional hot sauce. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Finish and serve
Taste and adjust seasoning. Stir in chives if using, then chill briefly before serving with chips, veggies, or tacos.
Prevent browning
Use enough lime juice and press plastic wrap directly on the surface to keep the dip green and fresh.
Texture control
Blend less for a chunky guacamole-style dip or longer for a silky crema.
Creamy herb version
Add cilantro and a spoon of Greek yogurt for extra tang and creaminess.
Spicy avocado dip
Add jalapeño or extra hot sauce for a kick.
Refrigerator
1–2 days
Store airtight with plastic wrap pressed on the surface to reduce oxidation.
