# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It looks so impressive that people think you spent hours in the kitchen when it's actually a 30-minute breeze
  • Everyone finds something they love—whether they're a veggie person, a chip enthusiast, or a dip devotee
  • Your guests will be taking pictures and talking about this board for weeks
02 -
  • Assemble this no more than 2 hours before serving, or the guac will start to brown and the board loses its vibrant appeal. Timing is everything with boards like this.
  • If you're making this ahead, cover the guacamole with plastic wrap and store it in the fridge, then arrange your snacks right before guests arrive. It keeps everything fresh and looking pristine.
03 -
  • If your guac is too thick, thin it with a touch of lime juice and it'll spread like a dream while adding brightness
  • Chill your board components before assembling—cold dips stay fresh looking and taste better on a hot game day
