Avocado Diva's Guacamole

Diva's Guacamole

This is the Avocado Diva's super secret guacamole recipe (well, it would be secret, except I put it all over the internet all the time...) 


"The Avocado Diva's" GUACAMOLE

INGREDIENTS:
  • 3 Heritage Avocados (MacArthur, Bacon or Lamb are best!)
  • 1 fresh lemon
  • 2 Tablespoons Diva's Avocado Salt Mix*
  • 1/2 medium purple onion, fine chopped
  • 2 heirloom tomatos, seeded and chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

  1. Score and cut up 3 Heritage Avocados into chunks**. 
  2. Mash 2 of the avocados well with a potato masher or fork. Reserve the other avocado in large chunks. 
  3. Sprinkle the mash with fresh lemon juice and with the Diva's spice mix*.
  4. Sprinkle avocados chunks with lemon and a bit of Diva spices as well.
  5. Chop up fresh cilantro to make about 1/4 cup. Reserve one pretty sprig for top decoration.
  6. Quarter 2 heirloom tomatoes, take out the "jelly" and seeds. Cut into small pieces (same size as purple onion). Sprinkle with a bit more of the Diva's Guacamole spices.
  7. In a large bowl, mix the mash well - then add all the "chunky stuff" (chunks of avocado, purple onion, tomatoes and cilantro) and gently fold them into the smooth mash of avocado. 
  8. Serve with the sprig of cilantro on top and fresh, crunchy tortilla chips!
Serves 4 people or 1 Diva


* The Diva makes and offers a delicious spice blend on her site - with 7 sea salts from all over the world! Plus another 13 spices -- including loads of dried garlic (granulated - it's a must!). You can simulate it by using Kosher salt, garlic and some chili powder. Or check out her site at www.AvocadoDiva.com
