The Diva's Favorite Guacamole
Cool tools and sea salts from 7 seas make for a delicious "heritage avocado" 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
- Score and cut up three heritage avocados into chunks**.
- Mash two of the avocados well with a potato masher or fork. Reserve the other avocado in large chunks.
- Sprinkle the mash with fresh lemon juice and with the Diva's spice mix*.
- Sprinkle avocado chunks with lemon and a bit of Diva spices as well.
- Chop up fresh cilantro to make about 1/4 cup. Reserve one pretty sprig for top decoration.
- Quarter two 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.
- 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.
- Serve with the sprig of cilantro on top and fresh, crunchy tortilla chips!
