  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2                     ripe avocados
  1                cup  defrosted green peas -- drained
  1              small  tomato -- chopped
  2        tablespoons  minced red onion
                        Juice of 1 lime
     1/2           cup  fresh cilantro -- chopped
                        Sea salt -- to taste
 
 
Pulse peas in a food processor or strong blender until smooth.
 
2. Cut open avocados, take out seeds, and scoop out avocado flesh into a
medium size bowl.
 
3. Add blended peas, tomato, red onion, lime juice, cilantro, and sea
salt.
 
4. Mix all ingredients gently with a fork - use enough pressure to bring
ingredients together, but not so much that avocado loses all of its
chunkiness.
Enjoy this delicious, protein-rich guacamole with your favorite raw
vegetables, steamed vegetables, whole grain dish, or baked chips.
 
Serves 4
 
AuthorNote: Guacamole has long been one of my favorite dishes. It's rich
in heart-healthy monounsaturated fatty acids, phytonutrients that are good
for keeping our eyes healthy, and a number of other health-enhancing
nutrients. Best of all, guacamole is simple to put together and goes well
with just about anything.
The following version of guacamole calls for mushed or blended green peas,
which makes it richer in healthy protein than more conventional guacamole
recipes.
