Guacamole Without Tomatoes | AIP Guacamole
This Guacamole Without Tomatoes (aka AIP Guacamole) is full of garlic, super easy to make, and tastes amazing!
Ingredients
- 2 large avocado
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/2 - 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste -- see Recipe Notes)
- 1/2 red onion chopped, small
- 1/4 cup cilantro optional, but use fresh and not dried -- see Recipe Notes, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a bowl.
- Stir to incorporate.
- Serve with chips or other "dippers" appropriate to your diet.
Notes
- Avocado Size: This recipe was developed using typical Haas avocados, which are 8-10 ounces, so keep this in mind. If you use smaller avocados, you'll want to adjust how many you use, or adjust the rest of the recipe (especially the salt!)
- Salt: You might want to start with a smaller amount and add more if need be. The amount of salt you use will depend on the type of salt (some salt is more potent than others) and the size of the avocado, in addition to your taste of course.
- Cilantro: Make sure to use fresh rather than dried cilantro. Dried cilantro is just not very flavorful and makes the guacamole take on a grayish tint as well. For more help with cilantro, here are my best tips on how to use it.
