Oaxacan-Style Guacamole
Serves 8
Time 10 min
This delicious guacamole is creamier and fluffier than most versions, making it a terrific sauce for grilled or roasted salmon, chicken breasts, or cauliflower or tofu steaks. But you can also use it as a dip for veggies or to add an intriguing touch to Mexican favorites.
