Happy Sunday! The past week  has been a busy one with work and family events plus getting ready for Christmas. I do love this time of year even though it is hectic. This week I am sharing a quick and easy recipe for Guacamole. There are not a lot of bells and whistles to it, just 3 ingredients, but it is so fresh and delicious! This is always a huge hit no matter where I take it, whether it's to  a holiday party or family get together. It is a healthy option and perfect to serve with a tray of cut-up veggies or tortilla chips.

Ingredients

  • 7 Ripe Avocados
  • Juice from 2 freshly squeezed Limes
  • 2 to 3 teaspoon Coarse Sea Salt

Instructions

  1. Peel Avocados, remove the pits and place in medium sized bowl.
  2. Use a potato masher to mash them until they are chunky, then stir with a spoon.
  3. Stir in fresh lime juice.
  4. Stir in coarse sea salt.

Notes

*Tip: This is best served within a few hours of preparing, as it will brown. However, to avoid browning, simply squeeze fresh lime juice over the top and let sit, then press plastic wrap in top. This prevents browning and all you need to do, is mix in the lime juice when using again.

  4. Thanks Angela for this simple, yet delicious sounding and looking recipe. I'll have to try it your way. At the Sunday Fitness and Food Party with "Self-care Activities to Encourage Optimal Health." It's so important during the holiday season to fit self-care into our day. Don't you agree? Thanks for doing such a fabulous job of hosting. Be well and enjoy the moment.

  16. I'm all about that guac! Love it and its so simple to make. I like your recipe - I make mine the same way. Simple. I do not like when there are 5 other things in the mix. Just takes away from the basic great flavor.
