Green goodness- my favourite guacamole 

As soon as I hear the word “avocado”, I can speak for hours on how healthy, tasty, beautiful it is and in many ways of using it.

My favorite ever avocado recipe is this guacamole with pistachio. I can have it for breakfast on toasted integral bread, for lunch as a side dish to chicken or rice, as a dip for afternoon snacks etc, etc, etc. All you need is avocado, pistachios, salt, pepper and lemon juice.

Prepare to get surprised and thank me for your healthy addiction, which takes only 5 minutes to make.

Notes

1 cup – a standard cup of 240 ml

If there is some leftover put it in an airtight container and put inside one of the avocado stones that you saved before. It helps to keep it fresh and it prevents it from browning. The guacamole keeps well in the fridge for up to 2 days.
