Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large Avocados
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 15 small Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 10 pieces Kalamata olives (pitted and chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil (chopped)
- 0.25 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoons Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Add the fresh lime juice and use a fork to mash the avocados until smooth but slightly chunky.
Drizzle in the olive oil and mix to combine for a creamy texture.
Dice the cherry tomatoes into small pieces and finely chop the red onion. Add both to the mashed avocado.
Stir in the chopped Kalamata olives, parsley, and basil for a vibrant, herbaceous boost.
Add the minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes, stirring until well blended.
Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese, being careful not to overmix to keep the feta pieces intact.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed based on personal preference.
Transfer the guacamole to a serving bowl, garnish with a sprinkle of parsley or basil, and serve immediately with pita chips, toasted baguette slices, or fresh veggies.
