You can have it chunky and still creamy. You add mayo to cream it up but it won’t necessarily get smooth unless you use a blender, if you do all the stirring with a fork there will still be nice chunks. But without the mayo all you’ve got is lumps of avocado with some seasoning around them, no good for dipping, no good for spreading on a burrito.
not true! chunky is good for dipping... especially with a homemade corn tortilla chip...
adding mayo, or worse, miracle whip, is too "cheez whizzy" for me...
