guacamole recipe

On Wells Street in Chicago sits one of my favorite Mexican restaurants, Adobo Grill.  It was here, about a decade or so ago, that I was introduced to table side guacamole.  Ever since that life changing moment (I know dramatic, but seriously) I have been perfecting my own guacamole recipe and I finally feel its ready to share with the world.  And just in time for Cinco de Mayo.  TGIF Loves!  truly, MKR

P.S. Every lover of guacamole needs a molcajete and World Market gave me a little early access to their friends and family sale so if you haven’t invested now is the time.  Get 25% off everything, yep everything, with code FNFSV.
