Guacamole

  • 10 ounces avacado
    1 tbs. lime juice
    1 tbs. minced red onion
    dash salt and pepper
    dash tobasco

    The recipe actually calls for diced tomatoes but this will increase the carb count so I leave them out if I am just making it for myself. Sometimes I add in a tablespoon or so of my Salsa recipe....saves time.

    Yields 5 - 2 ounce servings

  • That does sound good.
    I love eating avocados and I have one in my lunch today.
    but you know a California avocado has 12 grams of carbs and
    a Florida avocado has 27 grams of carbs
    when one raw tomato has only 5 grams.

    but I am doing a low carb diet too, but I feel its the kind of carbs you eat mater more than anything.
    I eat all kinds of fresh fruit and vegies no mater carb content.
    I quit white bread, white flower/gravy, white rice, white pasta, flower tortilas, potatos, and replaced all that stuff (in limited quantity) with whole wheat products and brown rice. I quit deep fried stuff with batter coatings, and
    I now cook most meats on my health grill, or (shame on me) BBQ.
    I don't use any BBQ sauce just spices. I also cut way back on salt.
    I am loosing weight finally after all these years...
  • Yum !!
