It seems that nothing is going right this year with our extended staycations due to the pandemic. One thing that seems to have defied the trend though is the bumper crop this year of Avocados! This year’s crop harvest has been unexpectedly bountiful and we can actually find avocados for under $1 a piece! (This is down from $5 to $8 a piece a few years ago!).
And one of the best things? These are local avocados! One of the best things about supporting local growers is actually reducing your carbon footprint, something that we’re extremely passionate about here at Mr Pool Man. How is supporting local growers helping with this? We rarely think about the physical lengths our food travels before they hit the market shelves and this brings with it a hefty environmental cost that is usually concealed in the price tag of our fruits!
Yes, we admit it, we’re huge fans of avocados, more specifically guacamole! And since International Guacamole Day is almost here we’ve decided to share our favorite guacamole recipe here! Sure, you can celebrate with store-bought guacamole, but where’s the fun in that? Our guacamole recipe is easy to prepare and more importantly, tastier than any store-bought variety!
