Guacamole is one of my favorite dips, and it's already pretty healthy. Avocados are a rich source of both fiber and heart healthy mono-unsaturated fats. Instead of nullifying the health benefits of guac by pairing it with ultra-processed tortilla chips, you can use guacamole as a dip for raw veggies like peppers or carrots, as a salad dressing, or as a spread for your next avocado toast. Guacamole is also perfect with Sauteed Taco Meat and Fajita Veggies!

GUAC
- 1 medium (110 g) Onion
- 2 medium (200 g) Tomato
- 4 medium (350 g) Avocado
- 1/4 cup (60 g) Minced garlic
- 1/4 cup (60 g) Lime juice
- 1 tsp (6 g) Salt
- 1 tsp (3 g) Black pepper, ground

OPTIONAL
- 2 tsp (6 g) Paprika
- 2 tsp (6 g) Chili powder

1. Cut your onion and tomato into a fine dice, and add to a bowl (or mortar and pestle). Scoop in your avocado, and add in the garlic powder, lime, salt, and black pepper. Mash until nearly smooth
