unfortunately the marinade used for the tri-tip was too overpowering with the amount of Soy Sauce that was used for Mrs. DanGarion so she didn&#8217;t enjoy it as much as I did.\u00a0 I will attempt to use something in place of the 16 oz of Soy Sauce that the recipe calls for when I make this again.\u00a0 Does anyone have suggestions on what to do to cut down the Soy Sauce?<\/p>\n<figure

taste to make sure it isn&#8217;t overpowering your guacamole.\u00a0 The lemon is mainly used to preserve the green of the avocado and not for flavor, it&#8217;s better to use less, then more.\u00a0 And lastly add salt and pepper to taste.\u00a0 Once again a little salt can go a long way so try to go easy on it.\u00a0 If you put too much of anything in it, throw in another avocado!<\/p>\n<figure
