I take that as a high compliment, coming from the Pasta Queen. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Vegan_Noodle - I love how healthy AND tasty Mexican (or inspired) food can be. I am obsessed with guac, Brett is too, we eat it probably 2-3 times a week. I like using coconut oil, it doesn't take nearly as much of it as other oils either and has a very neutral flavor.<BR/><BR/>Chickpea - Thanks! I love guac (as I'm sure you could tell). I imagine you could find coconut oil at most any grocery store, I've seen it at both of the grocery stores near my home, if you have a Whole Foods or Wild Oats, you should definitely be able to find it there. I buy Spectrum brand. In my grocery store it is located in the 'health food' section, not in the 'regular' section where all the other oils are.<BR/><BR/>Chocolate Covered - It's my favorite way to do it.<BR/><BR/>Bianca - I feel the exact same way about guac, I can just eat it by itself.<BR/><BR/>Skinny Bitch was a good book. I don't worry about saturated fat really, as I said to Vegan Noodle, I don't have to use nearly as much of it as I do other oils.<BR/><BR/>Miss Blueberry - Oooooh, a ripe avocado SHOULD be begging to be guac, it's the best use for one! I like to fry them, like I said, I use less than a 1/4 tsp of oil for BOTH burritos and it makes the tortilla nice and crispy. Mmmmmmm.<BR/><BR/>Rural Vegan - It was both! I'm glad I'm not the only one who shares a passion for guac.<BR/><BR/>Happy Herbivore - I bet they WOULD love it. With the black beans, I'm not sure who would love it more though - Scott or the fur kids! ;-)<BR/><BR/>Cookiemouse - Aw! You are too kind. It was mighty tasty. <BR/><BR/>No problem Cookiemouse, thank you for keeping us talking about it, we all need to think more about what is going on in the world an our implications in it.<BR/><BR/>Pleasantly - You guys are making me blush! Thanks so much!Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01760009169211682230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-59174728492384399692008-03-27T18:00:00.000-05:002008-03-27T18:00:00.000-05:00you are the queen of mexican inspired foods!you are the queen of mexican inspired foods!Lori- the Pleasantly Plump Veganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01699666546756497381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-3462848242081815882008-03-27T12:04:00.000-05:002008-03-27T12:04:00.000-05:00You are becoming my queen of Mexican food.

I love to eat guacomole straight from the bowl. Who needs chips when it tastes so good? <BR/><BR/>BTW, I've been using coconut oil too, after reading Skinny Bitch. I was scared of the sat fat content at first, but the more I read about it, the better I feel about using it.Biancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545245728462853370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-49602281170629091772008-03-26T13:25:00.000-05:002008-03-26T13:25:00.000-05:00I love the idea of putting the guacamole on the to...I love the idea of putting the guacamole on the top!ChocolateCoveredVeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03535445175195773771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507829329403685696.post-24784962155131268292008-03-26T12:58:00.000-05:002008-03-26T12:58:00.000-05:00Looks fantastic!

Also, I have been using coconut oil more and more lately and have really liked the results.
