This recipe adds the flavors of orange, lime, and pineapple to the traditional guacamole. Combined with fresh cilantro, salt, and a hint of cumin, this is a dip you won't forget! Great with tortilla chips, pita bread, or add to your favorite veggie wrap!

I made this (with "tweaking") for a July 4th pot luck and it was a major hit. (I'm certain that the novelty of the juices added to it's "mob appeal".) This made a lot, but I came home with an empty bowl. :) Tweakings: 1. I began by using 10 avocados (because of the anticipated crowd) and adjusted the other ingredients accordingly. 2. To stretch it, I blended the avocado with 2 8 oz. pkgs. cream cheese. 3. I used bottled lime juice concentrate, fresh squeezed orange juice and the syrup from a can of pineapple chunks. 4. I substituted a sprinkling of chili powder and some cayenne flakes for the cumin (personal preference). 5. Lastly, I added 2 Tbls. Worcestershire sauce. My intention was that my offering be used as a topping for the burgers, but some of the "guests" topped their hot dogs with it, too. Read More

When I first tasted this I was a bit disappointed. I think it needs time to sit and let the flavors mix. I also added more lime juice which improved it (to my taste--i love fresh lime). Read More

I usually make my guacamole "fully loaded" -- with onions tomatoes lots of garlic assorted colors of bell peppers plenty of jalapenos maybe olives sometimes mango Carolina blue crab etc etc. -- so I was pretty skeptical about this "bland" recipe; however the juice infusion kept calling me back to look at it again. So I tried it: first I made it exactly like the recipe and it was quite good (although yes a little bland). Then I tweaked it my way a little adding grapefruit juice (yum) tangerine juice (!) and crushed pineapple and replacing the hot pepper sauce with a heavy sprinkling of wasabi powder. I refrigerated it overnight and then used it as a sandwich spread. This was SO DELICIOUS! It won't replace my Super Bowl dip but it turned a simple sandwich into a gourmet meal. My luncheon guests loved it and I've got a new favorite in my recipe box! Read More

We used chili powder instead of cumin which turned the guac to a kind of a brownish color but it tasted sooo good! Also we didn't have pineapple juice so we just left it out. Read More
