Guacamole is a traditional Mexican dish made primarily from ripe avocados, lime juice, and salt, often enhanced with ingredients like cilantro, onion, jalapeño, and tomato. Its creamy texture and vibrant flavors make it a popular dip, spread, or topping in Mexican cuisine. Rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats from avocados, guacamole also provides essential nutrients like vitamins E, K, and C, as well as potassium and fiber. Fresh lime juice adds a boost of vitamin C, while cilantro and jalapeño introduce antioxidants and phytonutrients. While guacamole is generally considered a wholesome option, portion control is key, as avocados are calorie-dense. Some recipes or store-bought versions may contain added fats or sodium, potentially diminishing its health benefits. For an optimal nutritional profile, opt for homemade guacamole and pair it with nutrient-rich sides like vegetables or whole-grain crackers instead of chips.
