Review:

                When we made it in my office, we had a cutting board, knife and bowl at our disposal. We get avocados at our chow hall every once in a while and we had to wait about three days for them to ripen enough. Oddly they seem to ripen faster in the dark (like a desk drawer) than out in the light. We did not add onions or cilantro because we forgot to grab onions during chow run, and cilantro is not offered at our chow hall. For lime we used dried lime powder because someone had some, luckily! It seemed to really add to the taste. Not sure how it would taste without. Of course I must I give my compliments to the chef Ms. Brianna Johnson! And the official taste tester Ms. Stephanie Pierce! Thank you guys!
