The best way to get ready to make this dip is to lay out everything you’ll need. Put the different ingredients in small bowls so that you can grab them and use them, just like they do on the TV cooking shows.
Note to adults: If you want to streamline this event, you can provide ready-prepared guacamole dip, and you can pre-chop the tomatoes. If you’re uncertain about your child using a can opener, you can also pre-open the can of black olives.
