Simple IS *sometimes* best.
Although I rarely feel as accomplished as I do after any success when it comes to complicated recipes, it’s those tried and true comfort foods that I just keep going back to.
There are few things as simple as guacamole. After all, there really is no right or wrong way to make it. Yeah, there are some things that might seem unconventional (I will never be a fan of cheese in any guacamole and I LOVE cheese), but at the end of the day guacamole really is one of those things where the possibilities are endless according to personal tastes.
Shh…. Don’t tell anyone but less than ten years ago, I absolutely despised avocados. Crazy, I know! However, guacamole is a totally different story.
So if you don’t want to spend an extra two dollars every time you want the cool and creamy goodness on your burrito or bowl, then give this recipe a try!
**This recipe is enough for 4-6 servings and can be kept in the fridge for up to a day.
