This is my favorite way to make guacamole! I know it may be tempting at the grocery store to just buy one that is already made, but I promise you this recipe will get you out of that habit real fast! Plus, store bought guacamole often has lots of preservatives and nastiness and you don't want that!! This guacamole has the perfect mix of veggies, flavor, and spice. You can obviously customize this guacamole to your liking in terms of spiciness & avocado to veggie ratio, but there is one thing that you should NOT skip and that is the lemon zest! Adding fresh lemon zest really brings out all of the flavors in guacamole and is so refreshing. I add a lot, but at least try a little bit and let me know what you think!
