Avocado dip is perfect to eat during the hot summer months. It’s cool, refreshing, healthy and tasty. It’s easy to whip up and you can eat it on anything you fancy: wraps, sandwiches, pastas or just dip some crackers in it. I made this dip right after I made Olive Oil and Flaxseed Crackers because they go so well together.
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe avocados
- half a medium sized red onion
- half a medium sized tomato
- 1 clove of garlic
- a handful of fresh parsley leaves
- a sprinkle of salt
- a squeeze of lemon juice
- a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
Here’s what you do:
- Slice the avocados in half all the way around. Twist and separate the two halves and take out the seed.
- Spoon out the flesh into a small bowl and mash as needed, into a slightly chunky paste.
- Take half a medium sized tomato and half a medium sized red onion and chop them up small. Add them to the avocado.
- Grate 1 clove of garlic into the mixture.
- Chop up about a handful of fresh parsley leaves and throw those in too.
- Add a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, a dash of salt and a squeeze of lemon juice in and mix everything together.
That’s it!
Avocados are 25 cents at my farmer’s market, so I will have to pick some up this weekend!
The dip looks wonderful. And with your recipe for the olive oil and flaxseed crackers; a superb combination! ~ judy

I recently got my eleven-year-old to try guacamole, and he is sooo in love with it.
