Instructions
- In a food processor, combine all ingredients and pulse until you reach a guacamole-like consistency (pureed but with texture).
- Scrape down the sides with a spatula as necessary. Adjust salt and red pepper to taste, if needed. Sprinkle the top with some red pepper flakes before serving (adds spice).
- This dip can be served chilled or at room temperature depending on preference. Try it with tortilla chips, pita chips, crudités, or anything you like to dip in traditional guacamole. Use gluten free dippers if you're keeping this recipe GF.
