Method
Step 1
Fry 6 slices of bacon until crispy. Set aside.

Step 3
Scoop the avocados into the mortar (or bowl) with the onion, garlic, cilantro and serrano. Mash coarsely with the pestle (or use a potato masher if you don't have a mortar and pestle).

Cut the bacon in small pieces and add to the top. Add the rest of the tomatoes and sunflower seeds. Squeeze a bit more lime and serve immediately. Simply delicious, enjoy!
