Title: Guacamole, Skinny
Yield: 4 Servings
Ingredients
2 sm tomatillos; skinned, rinsed
-&
1 quartered
1 cl garlic
1/4 c green chili peppers; canned;
- diced
3 sp cilantro
1 avocado; peeled, pitted, &
-cut in
3 tb fat-free sour cream
1 salt and pepper; to taste
1 lime juice; to taste
1/4 c onion; diced
1/3 c fresh tomato; diced
1 hot sauce; to taste
Instructions
Using a blender or food processor, process the tomatillos with garlic,
chilies, and cilantro to puree. Add the avocado and sour cream,
processing
just enough to combine. Season to taste with salt, pepper, hot sauce, and
lime juice. Stir in onions and tomatoes by hand.
>From the cookbook: "This is a chunky-style guacamole that extends one
avocado and helps reduce fat and calories. Light sour cream, non-fat sour
cream, and fat-free cream cheese all work well in this recipe. If you
don't mind a few extra calories, use two avocados and add a little fresh
lemon juice. The tomatillos help keep the color fresh."
Lou's note: This is NOT guacamole, but it tastes pretty good. My
tennis team thought it needed some hot sauce to pep it up. I served it
at a league match and was reluctant to "hot" it up too much because of
differing preferences. I would have liked it hotter myself.
