Guacamole. Goodness in a bowl. My favorite food. I could literally eat it for dinner…every. night.
In honor of Cinco de Mayo, I’m sharing my favorite, no-fail, guacamole recipe. Super easy to make and always a hit at a party!
The secret to delicious guacamole is really in the avocados. Ensuring they are ripe and buttery will yield the perfect texture of luscious avocado goodness.
If you do not have Cinco de Mayo plans, add this to your dinner menu tonight! Happy Cinco de Mayo!
