Guacamole
We all love guacamole. But, I think we can all agree that some guac is tastier than others. I do not like to add tomatoes to my guacamole because it makes it runny. I prefer a thick and chunky texture, which is why I highly discourage using a food processor for this recipe. I have made this version multiple times and it has always been a hit with my friends and family. Spinach is optional, but I like the bright green color it brings. It makes it so easy on the eyes. My secret ingredient is ‘fresh mint’; it somehow embraces all the flavors and makes it taste amazing!
Try it in a taco or burrito with my chipotle black beans! It also goes great with my pepper jack cheese quesadilla!
