CREAMY GUACAMOLE



Creamy Guacamole image

This is a recipe handed to me by my Aunt Shawna. It's smooth, rich, creamy, definately not your average guacamole. Even my picky three-year-old daughter loves this. I usually eyeball ingredients when I make this, so the measurements are guesses. You can adjust to suit your taste! This guacamole is great served with tortilla chips, but I love to spread it on my sandwiches, too!

LIGHT GUACAMOLE



Light Guacamole image

I love guacamole, but I cant help but think how fattening it is every time I eat it. This recipe cuts down on the fat, without sacrificing any flavor, I actually think it has more! You can change up the ingredients sizes depending on taste, this is just a starter. If you like cilantro add about 5 tablespoons, I dont care for it myself.

Categories     Beans

Time 25m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium tomatoes, cored, seeded, and chopped fine
1 cup frozen lima beans
1 Hass avocado, pitted
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
salt
1/4 cup minced cilantro
1 medium jalapeno chile, stemmed, seeded, and minced
1 tablespoon minced red onion (or shallot)
1 garlic clove, minced
1/3 teaspoon cumin
pepper

Steps:

  • Let the chopped tomato drain in a colander while preparing the rest of the guacamole.
  • Bring 4 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the frozen lima beans and cook until tender and creamy, about 5 minutes. Drain the beans and rinse under cold water until cool. Pat the beans dry with a paper towels then remove the skins by pinching the beans so the skins slide off. If using baby limas, you can skip this step.
  • Scoop out a quarter of the avocado flesh, then process it with the lima beans, lime juice, mayonnaise, and 1/2 teaspoons salt in a food processor until very smooth, 1-1 1/2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the bowl as needed.
  • Cube the remaining 3/4 of the avocado into 1/2" pieces.
  • Gently stir the cubed avocado, pureed lima mixture, drained tomato, cilantro, jalapeno, onion, garlic, and cumin together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!
  • The guacamole can be refrigerated, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, for up to 48 hours.(the lima beans help keep it very green). Make sure the plastic wrap is touching the surface of the guacamole. Bring to room temperature and season with additional fresh lime juice, salt, and pepper before serving.
