First time I tasted guacamole was at one of my Tia’s fiestas. I was about 5 years old, and I must admit, I wasn’t a fan. The guacamole had onions and jalapenos, and my simple palate just couldn’t handle the taste. I vowed to never eat guacamole/avocado again. Fast forward years later, I love guacamole, which reminds me of my Tia’s fiestas, and I now make guacamole for my fiestas. Guacamole can be made for kids too, sans onions and jalapenos. Overall, a tasty treat for friends and family, and even the kiddos! Buen Provecho!
