 For those of you who’ve followed my blog for a while (thank you!), you’ll know that I’m obsessed with avocados.  Heck, I have a whole section of avocado recipes dedicated to my love of this creamy, dreamy fruit.  Honestly, I don’t think there is anything I love more than a big ol’ bowl of guacamole.  I can down a tub of guac all by myself, no apologies.  It’s just so delish!  Every now and then, I like mixing up my guacamole recipe by adding some fruit, like pineapple, mango, or in this case, pomegranate seeds, which are such a gorgeous seasonal fruit available in the fall and winter.  Let me tell you, pomegranate guacamole is out of this world!
