Guacamole

Guacamole is so easy to make, so good for you and adds an extra kick to any dish…remember to make extra and use throughout the week.

  • 3 avocados, pitted and roughly chopped (…save the pit)
  • 2-3 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 2-3 tbsp cilantro, chopped
  • 3/4-1 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 3/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 serrano pepper, finely chopped (…seeds removed)
  1. Add all your ingredients.

  2. Mix well.

  3. Drizzle a little olive oil for extra richness.

  4. Serve immediately or refrigerate.

Hints:

To keep the guacamole from turning brown, put the avocado pits in the guacamole or if refrigerating, lay a piece of parchment paper over the guacamole and then cover with plastic wrap or dish cover.

Be careful when chopping the serrano pepper, wash hands thoroughly and avoid eye contact. I freeze my serranos, so when it’s time to use it, I cut off the size I need and finely chop the frozen pepper, seeds and all. This seems to avoid the possible pepper oil from getting into my eyes (especially if you wear contacts).
