Teri always focuses on food that’s fun, flavorful, and fused with quality nutrition. Guacamole does all of this on its own, without needing anything special added. It’s that good! You start by picking the best avocados. You want fairly ripe for guacamole. You can tell by the firmness or by picking off the stem and looking at the coloring. They should give slightly when you squeeze them, yielding to firm, gentle pressure. If you pick off the stem, you want to see a yellow-green color underneath. Really green means it’s unripe and brown or black means it’s too ripe. Don’t be afraid to handle those avocados before you buy them. You want only the best! Cut them open. Now you get to see how well you picked. Remove the pit, and slice it up while still in the shell into cubes. Then you can gently squeeze these chunks out or scoop them out with a spoon. You may want to peel the avocados if you’re doing anything besides guacamole, but, for this recipe, no need to be so gentle. Add in the finely diced red onions, garlic, tomatoes, and jalapeno. Any hot pepper will work though, so choose your favorites. You’ll also want to add a little lemon or lime juice. Teri favors lime for guacamole. Season it with sea salt, cumin, and cilantro. Mix it all up. If your avocados were ripe to begin with, a little fork action is all it takes to make it perfect. Taste and re-season with salt, cumin, peppers, or lime juice, depending on your personal preferences. That’s all it takes. Dish it up, dip in the organic chips, and enjoy. You can also use red cabbage for a raw chip option. -- Subscribe to our channel: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=sunwarriortribe -- Visit us at: http://www.sunwarrior.com/ Like us on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/sunwarrior Follow us on Instagram: http://instagram.com/sunwarriortribe Follow us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Sunwarrior Hang out with us on Google+: https://plus.google.com/+Sunwarrior/posts Follow us on Pinterest: https://pinterest.com/sunwarriortribe/
