GREEK GUAC

The idea is simple! Swap traditional guacamole ingredients — like lime and cilantro — for Mediterranean-friendly flavors — like lemon, sun-dried + fresh tomatoes, oregano + parsley, and kalamata olives. Plus, just 8 ingredients, 1 bowl, and 10 minutes required.

A healthy snack from the Avocado team!! 🥑 💥 🎬

Here's how you do it.

INGREDIENTS.

• 2 medium to large ripe avocados, halved, pit removed
• 1 lemon, juiced (2 Tbsp or 30 ml)
• 1 heaping Tbsp (8 g) chopped sun-dried tomatoes
• 3 Tbsp (30 g) diced ripe cherry tomato
• 1/4 cup (40 g) diced red onion
• 1 tsp dried oregano (or 2 tsp fresh)
• 2 Tbsp fresh (7 g) chopped parsley
• optional: 4 kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
• Sea salt and black pepper to taste (~1/8th tsp each)

INSTRUCTIONS.

• Add avocado and lemon juice to a large mixing bowl and use a potato masher, pastry cutter, or large fork to mash and mix.
• Add remaining ingredients (olives are optional), and stir to combine (see photo above). Sample and add salt and pepper if needed.
• Adjust other flavors if needed, adding more lemon for acidity, sun-dried tomato for deeper tomato flavor, onion for crunch/spice, or parsley or oregano.
• Enjoy immediately with pita, pita chips, or vegetables! Best when fresh, though leftovers keep in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
