Tips:
- Use ripe avocados: The riper the avocados, the creamier and more flavorful your guacamole will be.
- Choose the right chickpeas: Canned or dried chickpeas can be used in this recipe. If using canned chickpeas, rinse and drain them well before using. If using dried chickpeas, soak them overnight in water, then cook them according to package directions.
- Add flavor with spices: Cumin, chili powder, and garlic powder are all great spices to add to guacamole. You can also add fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley.
- Use lime juice: Lime juice helps to brighten the flavors of guacamole and prevents the avocados from browning.
- Serve immediately: Guacamole is best served fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Chickpea guacamole is a delicious and healthy twist on the classic avocado dip. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed as a dip, spread, or topping. With its creamy texture and flavorful ingredients, chickpea guacamole is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
