GUACAMOLE
From: Vita Mix: Whole Food Recipes
OUR RATING: LOVE IT
So I was told anyway. I am not a fan of Guac...or avacodos. I try them all the time, but every time it gives me the heeby jeebies. I am not a fan. However, I tried this recipe out on extended family that loves the stuff and they said it was very good. So there you have it! A winner!
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 Ripe Avocados
- 1/2 tsp. Garlic Salt
- 1 Tbs. Lemon Juice
- 1/2 tsp. Ascorbic Acid Powder (optional)
- 1/4 c. Onion
- 1 Medium Tomato (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
- Cut avocados in half and remove pits. Scoop out the flesh and place in blender.
- Add Garlic Salt, Lemon Juice and Ascorbic Acid. Run on medium for 15-20 seconds or until ingredients are mixed. You may need to stop your blender and use a spatula to scrape around the sides to integrate ingredients.
- Turn machine on again. While it is running drop in onion and tomato.
- Do not over mix, leave chunky.
