Creamy texture and slightly nutty flavor, perfect for smooth guacamole.
Less fibrous than Hass avocados, creating a luxurious mouthfeel.
Ripe Summer Mangoes

Varieties like Ataulfo (honey mango) or Kent are especially sweet and less fibrous.
Rich in vitamins A and C, supporting immune function and recovery.
Summer Tomatoes
Best flavor from June through September when locally grown.
Choose tomatoes that are deeply colored, firm, and heavy for their size.
Heirloom varieties offer unique flavors and colors to make your guac pop.
Excellent source of lycopene, an antioxidant that may aid in muscle recovery.
