How to make guacamole using just one avocado:

We’ll start by bringing in all of the usual suspects: an avocado, some lime juice, garlic power and cilantro.

You can also add chopped tomatoes and onions but to skip the chopping and boost the flavor even more, I opt for store-bought pico de gallo. It’s basically chopped tomatoes, onions, and jalapeños so using this store bought option is a huge saver!

Then the secret ingredient: white beans (aka as cannellini beans) These creamy white beans are very mild in flavor so they’re the perfect way to add volume to our guacamole without having to use lots of avocados.

Because white beans are neutral in flavor, they take on the flavor of whatever you season them with.

I blend or mash the white beans with some water and then add them to the bowl with the other ingredients.

Inadvertent bonus? Adding white beans not only helps stretch one avocado into a whole bowl of guacamole, but it also adds beneficial nutrients like protein, fiber and iron!

Ok, but does it taste like beans??

I get the skepticism but this really is one of those magic “You gotta taste it to believe it!” kind of recipes.
