Family Gatherings Featuring Wholly Guacamole and Garden of Eatin (#Giveaway!) @eatwholly

I’m a homemade-dip kind of girl. When I have people over I always make everything from scratch and rarely open a can, box, or package of anything (with the exception of some h’orderves.) Every Friday or Saturday night from the time my hubby and I got married, we have friends over for movie and/or games night. It is nice to unwind with a glass of wine, great food, and great friends each week.

The general consensus for meals during these gatherings is Mexican. Everybody loves creating their own tacos with different toppings, and I like that it is super easy to make and clean up. My cousin would come over each week with 10 avocados, jalepenos, tomatoes, and onions to make guacamole from scratch. When I heard about Wholly Guacamole a little over a year ago, I really wanted to try it more out of curiosity. Everyone seemed to rave about it, but I thought that their standards may have been a little off. Until I tried it myself. I’m sorry to say that it was actually better than my cousin’s guacamole and has since replaced his weekly tradition of making a mess in my kitchen! We even had a taste test with everyone and they all agreed that we should take the “simple” route and just use Wholly Guacamole from now on!

Even though Wholly Guacamole is a pre-made dip (or food addition) it has a fresh taste that you won’t find in other store bought guacamoles, and believe me, I have tried them ALL!) The reason Wholly Guacamole tastes homemade is because of their “fresherized” system of creating and packaging guacamole. If you notice, the expiration date on Wholly Guacamole products is not nearly as long as other packaged foods that are loaded with preservatives. Wholly Guacamole uses NO preservatives and is full of healthy and natural goodness!

Other items we love are Wholly Salsa and Wholly Queso. I’m not a fan of salsa in general, but there is something about Wholly Salsa that sets it apart from the rest. Each time we open a package,  it is like we chopped up the tomatoes ourselves – it tastes THAT fresh! Whether we are having tacos, burgers, or sandwiches, Wholly products are ALWAYS included in our weekly get-togethers. Guacamole is a healthy alternative to dressings and other dips, plus it tastes great! You can’t ask for anything better! To check out recipes, sign up for their newsletter, print coupons, and find out more product information, check out Wholly Guacamole!
