I’ve always loved avocado in my food whether it’s on pizza, sandwiches, anything! However, the best way to really use an avocado is to make some guacamole out of it. I’ve seen and tried a lot of different types of guacamole before I came across this recipe and now I swear by it! You’re probably thinking it’s guacamole, how many different variations could there possibly be? And you are right because you can pretty much make guacamole any way you wish to depending on what type of flavors you prefer. But I like a little color in my food palette which separates this from the ordinary guacamole. The red from the tomatoes, the slight bite from the onions and the tangy flavor from the lemon juice really binds together this guacamole and makes it even better. Try it out and let me know if you can stop yourself from devouring the entire bowl!
