Thanksgiving Recipes Shared: Healthy Guacamole Recipe
4-5 ripe avocados
½ red onion, minced (about ½ cup)
1-2 jalapenos, minced
½ bunch cilantro, finely chopped
½ squeezed lime or lemon juice
½ teaspoon coarse sea salt
dash of freshly ground black pepper
1 ripe tomato, chopped
Scoop avocado from peal and mash with a fork in a mixing bowl. Add chopped onion, cilantro, lime, salt and pepper and mash more. Add peppers until desired hotness.
Keep the tomatoes separate until ready to serve. Cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole to prevent oxidation (it also helps to put guacamole in a glass bowl). Refrigerate until ready. Mix in tomato just before serving. Serve with organic corn chips or fresh veggies
