PINE NUT AND BASIL GUACAMOLE
Guacamole is typically a Mexican dish, but that doesn't mean you can't try to make it with other global flavors. For an Italian-inspired basil guacamole recipe, top it off with toasted pine nuts and fresh herb ribbons. You can also substitute the traditional lime for lemon juice.-Taste of Home Test Kitchen
