Mexican Guacamole

Should we put lime in guacamole?We Answered:
Yes, use lime because it gives a nice twist to the flavor and will also keep the guac from browning with exposure to the air... good luck.Sue Said:

Mexican chicken breast recipe topped with melted cheese & guacamole?We Answered:
not sure exactly what this dish is, but since it was a mexican dish it was probably queso fresco- (goat cheese unpasturized) really good on mex dishes. but you can probably re do it buy baking the chicken with spanish seasonings, and then topping it with the cheese and guacamole-gucamole- was probably just avocados, onion, tomato and maybe a jalapeno for spice, salt and pepper, and lemon- all mixed / smashed together
serve with rice and beans and you have a great dinner!!
