How did Guacamole originate?
It’s believed that Guacamole dates back to the 1500s when the Aztecs of Mexico created a popular saucy green spread using the same ingredients that we enjoy today. They called it ahuaca-mulli, which means an avocado mixture or avocado sauce.
What benefits of Guacamole?
The health benefits of Guacamole primarily come from avocados. Avocados contain healthy monounsaturated fat, which boosts brain function and health. It is one of the good plant-based fats that can help lower your cholesterol and reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke.
