I love Mexican food. Actually, love is an understatement for my affinity of comida mexicana. One of my favorite things to order is guacamole. Guacamole may get a bad rep, but it could serve as a healthy snack (if eaten in moderation). Out of craving and sheer boredom I decided to make my own dip.
Ingredients
2 ripe avocados
4 cherry tomatoes (finely chopped)
1/4 red onion (finely chopped)
1/4 red pepper (finely chopped)
1 garlic clove (minced)
1 jalapeno (seeded, finely chopped)
3 tsp lime juice (fresh lime)
1/8 tsp sea salt
1/8 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp black pepper
Directions
– Cut the avocados in half. Remove the pit and scoop out the insides into a bowl.
– Add lime juice, a dash of sea salt, pepper and paprika (I like mine on the spicier side) and mash together with a fork (or potato masher if you have)
– Add the onion, red pepper, tomatoes, jalapeno and garlic clove and continue to lightly mash/blend the ingredients together.
– Refrigerate for about 1 hour
