I discovered this idea at a party where a friend served guacamole cream with shrimp in small verrine cups for an aperitif. It was such a hit! She shared how she made it, and I’ve since used the idea for entertaining as well as for a first course when I have leftover guacamole.

Guacamole cream is a fantastic way to use up leftover guacamole. It’s perfect as a first course or appetizer served in verrines, or small cups. You’ll find more serving ideas below.

Ingredients

Guacamole - about two parts

Whipped cream - about one part

Optional: onion, lemon juice, garlic

Instructions

Add the leftover guacamole to a mini food processor. Alternatively, you can put it in a bowl and use a hand mixer. 

Add the whipped cream and blend until the mixture is smooth and airy. Adjust the amount of whipped cream based on how light and creamy you want the texture to be.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. You can add a pinch of salt, some minced garlic, or a squeeze of lemon. 

Serve as a first course with shrimp or in verrines for entertaining.

I often cook "au pif," as we say in France, which means cooking without an exact recipe and by "feel" using your intuition.  You’ll find guidelines in many recipes versus exact quantities.  Write to me here if you have any questions about the recipes.

  • A Real Game Changer

    "We have made a lot of progress over here under your care. We are now all eating from the same “pot” which I was surprised how much my kids loved. They were so excited when I put the food in the middle of the table. They asked for it the next day, Can we do that special fancy dinner thing where we have a feast? It really is such a better ritual—passing the food around and all sharing from the same platter, a real game changer."
