Lighter Guacamole With Superfoods
- Makes 6 servings
- 1 very large juicy tomato (heirloom varieties are great)
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 large avocado
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 cup white onion, minced (plus extra for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, minced (plus extra for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- sea salt, to taste (optional)
- hot sauce, to taste (optional)
- In a food processor or blender, blend the tomato into a chunky puree. Transfer to a small bowl, add the chia seeds, and stir well to combine. Let sit for 10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to swell and the mixture to thicken.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mash the avocado with the back of a fork into a paste. Add the garlic powder, onion powder, mixed onion, cilantro and lime juice, and mix well. Add the thickened tomato-chia mixture and stir. Add sea salt to taste, and spike with hot sauce, if desired, to preferred heat level. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with extra chopped onion and cilantro.
