Sometimes, my recipes come to fruition out of a desire to meet the dislikes of family members, versus their likes. This adaptation of guacamole is a perfect example.
Three of the staple ingredients used in traditional guacamole happen to be my steps-sons and husband’s least favorite foods. One son strongly dislikes raw onions, while the other can be quiet put-off by even the sight of tomatoes. My husband, who is typically not a picky eater, can find garlic potent and hard on his stomach.
While trying not to sacrifice an ounce of flavor, this avocado dip incorporates the delicious flavors of lime, cilantro, and jalapenos and excludes garlic, onions, and tomatoes.
I hope you enjoy this adaptation of guacamole as much as my family. Try it on tacos, tortilla chips, pasta, julienne vegetables, or sandwiches.
Enjoy!
