Debo's Ultimate Sausage Taco Supreme


Guacamole is an avocado-based dip that originated in Mexico. It is traditionally made by mashing ripe avocados with a molcajete (mortar and pestle) with sea salt. Some recipes call for tomato, onion, lime juice, chili and or additional seasonings. 


Guacamole was made by the Aztecs as early as the 16th century. Early recipes from the California Avocado Advisory Board (Calavo), published in the 1940s, were accompanied with a pronunciation suggestion: "Say Huakamole". Later marketing tried to create a "luau" or Pacific Island image of the avocado in the 1960s, and a Spanish or Mediterranean image in the 1970s. Guacamole has pushed avocado sales to 30 million pounds on two days a year: Super Bowl Sunday and Cinco de Mayo.

  20. I usually make my tacos out of Monterey Jack Cheese - just spread grated cheese in a small nonstick pan; heat and flip when able to flip; cook briefly on other side. Remove, fold over and keep open with a spoon. lol Not sure who would be interested. :)

    The addition of beer is interesting. Love the photo - looks so appetizing.

    Thanks for visiting my blog. Happy New Year to you! :)

  23. Hello everyone! I made an error on this post, and have updated, it's now correct. I apologize for the error. Guacamole is an avocado-based dip that originated in Mexico, not Spain. Again, I apologize for the error.
