Description

Take your guacamole dip to the next level with creamy, tangy blue cheese and smoked, salty almonds.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 Haas avocados, halved, seeded and peeled
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne
  • 1/2 medium sweet onion, diced
  • 1/2 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
  • 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
  • 1 tbsp chopped cilantro
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) coarsely chopped smoked almonds
  • 3/4 oz. (20 g) blue cheese, crumbled (3 tbsp.)

Instructions

  1. Scoop the avocado pulp into a large bowl and add the lime juice, toss to coat. Drain, and reserve the lime juice, after all of the avocados have been coated.
  2. Using a fork, add the salt, cumin, cayenne, and 1 tbsp of the reserved lime juice and mash. Then, fold in the onions, jalapeño, tomatoes, cilantro, garlic, and most of the almonds and blue cheese.
  3. Top with the remaining almonds and crumbled blue cheese just before serving.

Notes

  • The guacamole can be made up to 1 hour ahead; cover the surface with plastic wrap, pressed onto the top of the mixture, and keep at room temperature.
