Holy Guacamole

Five minute homemade Guac @ohmmyyoga

​

Avocados are never under $2.50 in Australia. Yes, American readers, you read that correctly. An absolute bargain is 2 for $5. I'm born and raised in California where we get avocados for 50 CENTS... it absolutely kills me paying through the nose for my favorite fruit!

Woolworths had avocados on sale yesterday for $1 each, so I grabbed a few and decided to make a quick and easy appetizer last minute. This what I threw together.

Holy Guacamole
(Appetizer, serves 2 adults)


Ingredients

2 ripe avocados 
1 jalapeño
1 clove of garlic, micropaned 
Juice of 1/2 lime
Squeze of lemon (approx 1 tbs)
Salt and pepper to taste 


Method 
Cut, peel and scoop out the avocado flesh and mash it with a fork. Don't over mash it, it's nice when your guac is a bit chunky.
Cut the jalapeño in half, removed the seeds and stem. Then dice finely. 
Cut the red onion in half and dice finely as well.
Microplane the single glove of garlic.

In a small bowl, add all the ingredients and mix together. Add salt and pepper to taste. I like to garnish it with a little extra red onion and jalapeño. You could also add some fresh coriander on top, that would be divine!

Serve with chips, pita, carrot sticks or celery.
I am obsessed with Blue corn chips, and these only have three ingredients (including the salt)! You can find them at Woolworths.
