Guacamole and Hummus Recipe

Tuesday, February 9, 2016

I love guacamole! I'm pretty sure I could just eat it on it's own. Guacamole basically makes everything better.

Guacamole recipe:


3 ripe avocados, halved, pitted, and peeled
1 onion, coarsely chopped
1 serrano chile pepper, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlive, coarsely chopped
1/3 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
Juice of 1 lime
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 tomato, coarsely chopped

In a food processor or chopper, combine the avocados, onion, pepper, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Plus until slightly chunky and combined. Add the tomato and pulse until desired consistency.

Hummus recipe:


1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 can (15.5 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
3-4 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons tahini
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
1 tablespoon pine nuts (optional)
1 tablespoon chopped chives (optional)

In a food processor, pulse the olive oil, chickpeas, and garlic. Add the lemon juice, tahini, red pepper, paprika, and salt, and process until thoroughly mixed and smooth. Sprinkle with cheese, pine nuts, or chives if desired. Store in airtight container in the fridge.
