I love guacamole! When I discovered avocados as a teenager—the main ingredient in guacamole—I couldn’t believe what I had been missing!
One downside to guacamole is it tends to quickly turn brown. The solution? Lime juice!
So in honor of lime juice saving the lovely green color of guacamole, check out “Limehouse Blues” sung by the Mills Brothers.
