Pico Guacamole

I think I can say with 99% confidence that I have some kind of avocado every day. Sometimes it’s on a salad, sometimes I just add some lemon juice and scoop it right out of the skin, and sometimes I inhale an entire bowl of guacamole! (For real.)

I don’t know what it is about avocados, but we get along really well! 😉

Pico Guacamole

Recently, I made up a simple homemade guacamole and tossed in some pico de gallo to transform it into a filling, chunky guacamole. I like simplicity in meals and recipes, and this one is as simple as it gets.

Pico Guacamole in a pinch! The perfect appetizer or snack for any party or just because....on 5 Dollar Dinners!!!

    I love guac too. I make mine similar to yours except I add a shake of powdered garlic and some salsa verde. Delish!
