Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole ripe avocados
- 1 cup chickpeas (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 whole garlic clove (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (optional, chopped)
- 1 whole jalapeño (optional, seeded and diced)
Instructions
Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a food processor.
Add the chickpeas, tahini, lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, and sea salt to the food processor.
If using cilantro and/or jalapeño, add them to the food processor for extra flavor and a slight kick of heat.
Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy. Pause to scrape down the sides of the processor as needed to ensure everything is well incorporated.
Taste the guacamous and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more lime juice, salt, or cumin as desired.
Transfer the guacamous to a serving bowl and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of cilantro, or a dusting of cumin if desired.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, pita bread, veggie sticks, or use as a spread. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
