My friend Kristin told me about Mock-A-Mole and I was shocked - "healthy guacamole," she said. "You can't even tell the difference." She said she made a batch and didn't tell her friends that had come over to watch a football game and surprise, surprise...they didn't say a word...now, of course, she spilled the beans afterwards, but I had to try it as I was intrigued. Healthy Guacamole!?! I made the mock-a-mole when
Jassny and
Buren came over to watch a game and told them to guess the secret ingredient. Answers were something like, "
cumin?" "Garlic Salt?" (there is garlic salt in it, but it wasn't the secret ingredient). Finally after many guesses and a lot of "this is so goods" I told them....it's GREEN PEAS! It almost adds a sweeter taste to the guacamole, which everyone seemed to love. This would be perfect for kids - Chad hates green peas, and he said he loved it! I'm definitely going to make this one again, so on Superbowl Sunday there is a healthy indulgence other than the usual Chicken wings and Kelsey's famous Chili Cheese Dip! Enjoy friends!

what's the unhealthy part?
ReplyDeleteunhealthy part? of guac?? The fat content of avocados - Guacamole is so great for you and Avocados are a "good" fat, but in moderation. I know when I sit in front of a bowl of guac I eat the whole thing - that's unhealthy!
