Description

Guacamole is a dressing, dip, spread and snack. It’s vegan-friendly, gluten-free and very healthy. Here’s a classic yet simple recipe, with eight ideal ingredients helping it burst with flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 very ripe avocados
  • 1 lime
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, diced and with seeds removed
  • 1 medium tomato, diced
  • ¼ cup of diced red onion
  • ¼ cup of chopped cilantro

Instructions

  1. Slice open the avocados, lengthwise and carefully. Spoon out avocados into large bowl.
  2. Add lime juice, minced garlic and sea salt.
  3. With a fork, mash together until mixture becomes creamy.
  4. Add in diced jalapeño pepper, tomato, red onion as well as cilantro, and mix with a spoon until well combined. For the jalapeño pepper, make sure you thoroughly scoop out the seeds.
  5. Serve immediately with sliced red peppers, celery or carrots. If your diet allows carbohydrates, serve with organic blue corn tortilla chips.

Notes

To store, place the guacamole in a container and press it down and smooth-over the top so there are no air pockets. Then cover it with plastic wrap that sits against the surface of the guacamole, allowing no air to get inside.
