One thing that was backing me up from being completely free from animal products was my beloved cheese. I could eat cheese all day, if you ask me what I could eat for the rest of my life, I would answer bread with cheese (good bread please). I was cooking a lot of vegetarian dishes with tons of cheese, all kind of cheeses, from the crappiest to the most refined. Also my breakfast as far as I remember, always included at least a slice of cheese. More precise, my weekday breakfast was always a slice of bread, a slice of cheese and a cup of dark coffee, sad, I know… so, I wanted something that would substitute the easy “take of the fridge and done” cheese, without eating the so processed that must be worse than ham, the vegan cheese.
In a trip to Mexico, I had huge breakfasts (so big or bigger than a lunch) and there I discovered the tasty frijoles refritos, a paste of beans that were fried in a sofrito. And of course, I also tasted the real guacamole, these two pastes/creams are a happy couple in the world of taste. In this recipe, I’m not using onion in the guacamole, I found it was a hardcore taste (and after smell) to have on mornings.
