Ingredients
1 ripe Haas avocado, pit remove and flesh scooped out of skin
3/4 cup whole cilantro leaves, no stems
1 fresh jalapeno, stemmed and seeded, cut into chunks(you may not need it all)
1 large garlic clove, crushed
Juice and zest from one lime
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp agave syrup or honey (I prefer the agave)
S&P to taste
Cumin to taste (optional)
Water (optional to thin if needed)
Whiz everything in a blender or food processor until smooth. Adjust seasonings to taste. Thin with water if too thick. Depending on how spicy you want it, you can sub serrano or other chili pepper. I had to use the whole jalapeno and it was still lacking in spice. You never know how spicy a chili pepper can be until you taste it.
Try this in place of guacamole in your tacos, quesadillas, etc...
Makes a pretty good salad dressing too.
