JALAPENO PEPPERS GUACAMOLE

jalapeno-peppers-guacamole-nairobi-kitchen-recipe

Dips are just the best things to happen to snacks, all kinds of foods generally. And what is the number one Dip of all time? You guessed it, GUACAMOLE! Guacamole, Guac or whichever name you love to call it, this veggie Dip has stood the test of time and still remains the number one favorite Dip of all time. The best part is that it features one of my favourite fruits, AVOCADO! I literally could eat Avocado daily and with every food! Guac is simply Avocado marrying other ingredients, whether spices or herbs.I love all things spicy that is why for today's Guacamole, I added Jalapeno peppers, they gave it that kick that all great foods should have. Guacamole is such an easy Dip to make that you will be done in less than 10 minutes and you get to enjoy your creation. Personally I prefer the dark green Avocados but since they are not in season at the moment, I went for the dark purple ones. Still amazing result for my Jalapeno peppers Guac!

-Squeeze Lemon Juice into the Guacamole Dip. Apart from adding a zingy flavor to the Guacamole Dip, Lemon helps to prevent the Avocado from turning black as you wait to use it
