Fire Breathing Green Butter
So I whipped up a batch of guacamole last night, and just had some today after it’s had time to have a party in the bowl. Woohoo!! It’s kinda spicy! Avocado and guac gets a bad rap because it’s “full of fat”. Au contraire. It’s the good fat that’s good for your heart aka monounsaturated fat. Enjoy.

Cut avocados in half, then throw out the seed. Use a spoon to scoop the avocado into a bowl and add the other ingredients. Mix it all together. I like mine chunky so I go easy with the mixing. Dish it up on meat, dip veggies in it, use it as a sandwich or wrap spread, schmear it on sprouted grain tortilla’s, cut up whole wheat pita, or eat it with a spoon.
