{Nightshade-Free Guacamole}

Previously, we posted a great homemade guacamole recipe we found online which was a delicious way for us to start incorporating avocados into our diet.

Since then, we’ve made guacamole several more times and revamped it to a place we truly believe is the best guacamole ever. It has also become nightshade free for those of you avoiding nightshades :)

More lime-infused, less oniony, and nightshade-free, we think you’ll want to make this a regular staple in your home. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

(This guac also makes a fabulous garnish to the Citrus Carnitas we posted last week. Try them together!)

Ingredients

3 Haas avocados, halved, seeded & peeled
2 Limes, juiced
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/4 medium Yellow Onion, finely diced
4 tablespoons Chopped Fresh Cilantro

Instructions

Scoop the Avocado flesh into a mixing bowl.
Roll the 2 limes on a hard countertop until they feel soft, to ensure maximum juice extraction.
Juice the limes over the Avocado. Toss to coat.

Sprinkle in the Sea Salt, Ground Cumin, and minced Garlic.
Using an avocado tool or potato masher, mash all ingredients together to your desired smoothness.
Gently mix in the diced Onion and chopped fresh Cilantro.
Enjoy immediately, or let sit for an hour for flavors to marry even further together. Serve at room temperature.
Store in an airtight container and refrigerate leftovers.
