Mexican is my very favorite type of cuisine. At least, today it is, haha. My whole life I’ve kind of gravitated between Mexican and Italian, but in the summer time I lean more toward Mexican for some reason! I mean, does anything sound better than some homemade guacamole and this low-cal coconut limeade on a hot summer afternoon? I submit: no.
Anyway, I grew up with my mom making this homemade guacamole, and honestly store bought just does not do it for me after having this! Even many restaurants can’t compare (probably the ones who buy theirs instead of make it) in my mind. Guacamole is just one of those dishes that is so simple and easy to make for yourself, it’s silly not to.
So, in case you don’t have your own recipe today I’ll share the one my mom makes! Because everyone should be able to make their own guacamole.. everyone.
