Guacamole


Guacamole is one of my favorite foods!

Guacamole is one of my new favorite foods. It’s great for a snack or a light dinner and much healthier than my regular go to snack of sweets. Bonus points for being so easy and quick to prepare.

Ingredients for Guacamole

I used to struggle with a good way to chop my avocados but then a friend told me she simply rubs them back and forth over a grid cooling rack. Works wonderful!

Rub avocado back and forth on a grid cooling rack to easily chop it.
Chopped avocado

Add chopped onions, tomato, garlic, salt, pepper and lime juice. Sometimes I add fresh parsley, basil or cilantro to taste. Sometimes I put all the ingredients in my blender and pulse on the chop setting for 10-15 seconds.

Add chopped onion, tomatoes, and remainder of ingredients.
Ready to serve – Enjoy!

Guacamole is best served immediately but still tastes pretty amazing the next day. What a treat-looks good, tastes good, healthy, fast and easy to prepare. Enjoy!
