Goddess Guacamole

This rich guacamole is the ideal skinny dip. Creamy avocado isn't just velvety- smooth on the tongue—it also helps to keep your skin soft and supple thanks to its pro-vitamin A compounds, which are thought to help prevent wrinkles.

Ingredients

4 Servings

2 cups kale leaves
4 Hass ripe avocados
3 ripe tomatoes, seeded, finely chopped
1/4 cup minced red onion
2 jalapeno chilies, seeded, finely chopped
1 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced
  1. Step 1

    Place the kale leaves in a food processor and pulse until they are finely chopped. Cut the avocados in half, and remove the pits. Scoop out the flesh and place in a large wooden or metal bowl. Add salt and mash with the back of a wooden spoon until desired texture is reached—I like mine a bit chunky. Stir in kale leaves and remaining ingredients. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt.

    Step 2

    Place a piece of plastic wrap directly over the surface of the dip. Store in the refrigerator up to 10 hours. Serve with whole grain tortilla chips, toasted whole wheat pita wedges, or toasted soft corn tortillas.

  • Delicious! Good call on the pastry tool. It gives it the perfect slightly chunky consistency. I will definitely make again.

  • I use a pastry cutting tool to chop up avocados. It's typically used to cut the butter into other ingredients. Using this tool, you can make the avocado as smooth or as chunky as you want. I love how well it works, especially on recipes like this one! I can't eat kale because of a med that interacts, however, the recipe was just fine without it. I just decreased the amounts a bit, because of the change in volume.

  • Delicious! This dip was consumed very quickly. The only thing I changed was I added 2 cloves finely chopped garlic and I only used one tomato.
