Quick and easy homemade guacamole!
Quick and easy homemade guacamole
I dont know about you but i love a good guacamole! Save yourself from the store bought preservatives and make it fresh!
Enjoy! xo Jen
Ingredients
3 medium avocados or 4 small ones;
1 firm tomato, finely diced;
1/2 white onion;
1/2 cup chopped cilantro;
2 tbsp fresh lemon or lime juice;
Optional salt and pepper to taste.
Preparation
Open the avocados and scoop out the flesh. An easy way is to cut it length-wise around
the pit and than using a chefs knife strike the pit and then twist the knife so you can
easily remove the pit and scoop out the flesh.
Mash the flesh with a fork, it can still have hard parts, follow your preference.
Stir the other ingredients.
Enjoy right away or store in the refrigerator. A trick is to put a plastic wrap that touches
the guacamole so it doesn’t brown because of contact with air.
Try not to eat it all right away and keep some for your guests or family!

Zucchini noodles are a perfect substitute. You can purchase a spiralizer for cheap at target, Walmart, or Amazon ! All you have to do is buy 1 or 2 zucchini’s, turn & press them through the spiralizer, pat them with paper towels or a cheese cloth, and sautée them for a few minutes. Two of my favorite ways to eat them are with a meat sauce or pesto.
For meat sauce:
I use a few cans of sauce and I add Italian seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic powder, basil, and oregano). Then I add a large handful of fresh baby spinach, and a half pound to a pound of ground turkey. That way you still get to add some protein!
For pesto:
Homemade pesto is best, but if I’m in a jam I use a jar of pesto. I add olive oil for some healthy fats, and add grilled chicken for protein!
Both are perfectly well balanced meals, that are super easy to make! Neither require a long list of ingredients, and most importantly are delicious!
