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
- Slice open the avocados, lengthwise and carefully. Spoon out avocados into large bowl.
- Add lime juice, minced garlic and sea salt.
- With a fork, mash together until mixture becomes creamy.
- 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.
- 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.
