A New Take on Guac

January 21, 2010 by epicureanvegan

A New Take on Guac -- Epicurean VeganI wanted to spice up some old favorites. I love the different flavors in this guacamole and chances are, you have all the ingredients already. The idea came from Whole Foods, but I made some variations.

INGREDIENTS:
3 Med ripe avocados
1/2 C diced water chestnuts
1/2 red onion, diced small
2 Tbs minced garlic
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp hot sesame pepper oil
2 Tbs minced fresh cilantro leaves
3 Tbs lime juice
Sea salt, to taste

DIRECTIONS:
Mash up the avocados and then add all the other ingredients. Mix well and enjoy!

Like my other guacamole recipe, I like to use a pastry blender to mash the avocados. It works beautifully, even when the avocados aren’t quite ripe enough.

The Epicurean Vegan is devoted to those wanting to eat healthy, save animals, and reduce their carbon footprint. My decision to go vegan started out as a quest to get healthier, but the more I learned about veganism, the more I realized how damaging the meat and dairy industries are to the environment and, of course, the animals. And it is for these reasons, that I would never go back to eating or wearing animal products. Ever.
