Enjoy Erin’s Everyday Guacamole
Guacamole is one of my favorite ways to enjoy avocados. It’s always a crowd pleaser and usually the first dish to get wiped out at all our get togethers. Why save guacamole for parties? It’s ridiculously simple to prepare and can add a burst of flavor to all your meals.
- Not just for chips! Scoop your guac with slices of red bell pepper. They are loaded with vitamin C and provide the same satisfying crunch.
- Top salads. Use guacamole instead of salad dressing. It’s bold flavor and creamy texture easily replace more unhealthy dressings (eh em..ranch). The healthy monounsaturated fats in avocado improve the satiety of a salad as well as your bodies ability to absorb many of the fat soluble nutrients in the veggies.
- With Eggs. Jazz up your egg routine with a little guac. Use a scoop on top or cook it right into an omelette.
- Liven up boring weekday chicken! Chicken breast is a staple in our house, but it can get a little monotonous. Make it fun with a scoop of guacamole and a side of black beans. Simple and delicious.
- On the go. Wholly Guacamole makes convenient single serving guacamole cups to pack in your lunch. They combine a few natural ingredients, perfectly portioned and sealed to stay fresh.
