Guacamole Recipe
- Add avocado, sliced olives, chopped spring onion, salt and lime juice, to a medium sized bowl.
- Using a fork or a small blender, combine everything into a paste. Don’t worry if it takes 1 minute or 5 minutes to make the guacamole. Note that using a creamy avocado should help a lot.
- Serve alongside your favorite salad, and optionally enjoy with a few slices of healthy bread.
Notes
I love serving my homemade guacamole with sourdough bread. What’s your favorite kind of bread?
The salad and guacamole are two different recipes but they combine nicely together. Feel free to serve them with your favorite extras.
Salads are all about being creative with food and making it yours. Play with the quantities or the ingredients list, and find your salad inspiration.
Besides making guacamole the old fashioned way (using a fork), you can also use a blender or anything similar to mix all the ingredients together.
