Green Guacamole, Oaxaca Style

Avocados have a cultural reputation as an indulgent, rather ostentatious California luxury. They deserve it. Rich and creamy, heady, swoony, and gorgeous, the avocado may well be the glamorous Hollywood starlet of the fruit world. We know they're rather high in fat, but they're also a fabulous source of vitamin E, as well as some A, C and Potassium.
