Notes

For the best results, use ripe avocados for a creamy texture and fresh lime juice for a zesty flavor. Consider adding grilled chicken or shrimp for a more substantial meal. Adjust the seasoning as per your taste, and feel free to add more vegetables like cucumbers or bell peppers for extra crunch.
