Prepare Baby Carrots.
Rinse the baby carrots thoroughly under cold running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. If desired, peel the carrots gently with a vegetable peeler for extra smoothness, but this is optional as baby carrots are usually pre-peeled.
Tip: Dry carrots well to ensure they don’t dilute the guacamole when dipped. -
Measure Guacamole.
Using a measuring cup, scoop out 1/4 cup (about 60 grams) of guacamole. Place it into a small serving bowl for easy dipping.
Tip: If you like, you can stir the guacamole gently to ensure even consistency before serving. -
Serve and Enjoy.
Arrange the baby carrots on a plate next to the bowl of guacamole. Use the carrots to scoop up the guacamole and enjoy immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Tip: Serve chilled for a refreshing snack.
Pro tips
- For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of chili powder or paprika on the guacamole before serving.
- If you want to add crunch, serve with a few whole grain crackers alongside the carrots.
