Chipotle Mexican Grill Guacamole

November 27, 2011

Chipotle Mexican Grill Guacamole is one of my favorite guacamole around. There is generally one major problem with guacamole, and that is simply, it is served in smaller portions than what I would like. Now, you can make guacamole with this copy cat recipe just like the Chipotle Mexican Grill does.

Friends have often laughed at me, I think of guacamole being the “benevolent” family member when it comes to Tex Mex food. I tend to think of it as something that takes away that heat from peppers. The creaminess of the guacamole seems to act as a salve on a burning tongue like nothing else.
One thing I think we should encourage people to do is to prepare food at home, I have seen guacamole sold pre-made in stores, some of it I find scary it looks like a green paste, its edible, but it isn’t good. Chipotle Mexican Grill makes everything fresh, and they do so right in front of you. So you can see them use only fresh ingredients, and it really makes a big difference in the way the food tastes. So here is my take on their guacamole, I hope you enjoy guacamole, half as much as I do!
