Salsa Guacamole

Chips, dips, and salsa are big when it comes to family celebrations or big sports celebrations like the upcoming Super Bowl, so I thought I would share a lower calorie version of guacamole that tastes very good without the addition of mayonnaise or sour cream. When I came across this recipe I was a little skeptical about how good it could possibly taste without sour cream, but it is a very good and healthy alternative to high fat dips. Of course, the tortilla chips can still be a bit of a challenge, but goodness, the Super Bowl only comes once a year; enjoy! Blessings...

Recipe:

6 small ripe avocados, halved, pitted and peeled
1/4 cup fresh lemon or lime juice, approximately, add to your taste and the consistency you like.
1 cup salsa
2 green onions, finely chopped
1/4 tsp. salt or to taste
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
Tortilla chips

1. In a bowl, mash avocados with lemon or lime juice.
2. Stir in salsa, onions, salt and garlic powder. Taste and adjust seasoning
if needed. Serve immediately with chips.
