    I like adding some srirachia for some heat.

    Try just mashing the avocados by hand and adding the rest after. The avocadoes should be soft, I just use afork. It’s easy, the Blendtec does the messy part!

    Is there any reason to peel and pit the avocado? Willitblend.com mentions using the whole avocado.
