A terrifically bright Guacamole made from avocado is a great appetizer with tortilla chips. This is an an elemental ingredient for quesadillas, burritos or final garnish or condiment for many Mexican dishes. We harvest these from trees near Fallbrook California, the Avocado Capital of the US. |

Notes
|
Haas avocados are widely available as they ship well, and its thick skin is easy to peel. Each kind of avocado has its own flavor - Zutano, Bacon, Fuerte. If you cannot find tomatillo you can use a small green tomato. Can add Mexican oregano and cumin.
