How long will this last in the refrigerator?

While I like this dip fresh, it will last in the fridge for 2-3 days.

Do the avocados turn brown?

Thanks to the citrus from the lime juice, the avocados don't brown quickly. I've had this dip sitting out for hours and it does fine.

My avocados are very ripe. Will this work?

If the avocados have gotten past the point of staying firm after being diced, you might consider making guacamole instead.

I don't like tomatoes, can I leave them out?

I sometimes make this without the tomatoes. While I miss their flavor, the recipe stands alone ok without them.

Notes/Tips

Chop the avocado and cherry tomatoes into small, uniform pieces that fit on a chip. We suggest dicing the red onion even smaller.
I’ve found that the avocados are easier to chop if they are refrigerated beforehand.

Add In Ideas:

Cilantro – Finely chop to sprinkle over the top or stir in for added flavor and freshness.
Jalapeno Pepper – Seed and mince to add some crunch and heat.
Cumin – Stir in a little cumin from the pantry to add smokiness.
Cayenne Pepper – Stir in a pinch of cayenne from the pantry for even more heat.
