Guacamole with Greek yogurt is epic
And by epic I mean completely scrumptious and ridiculously addictive.
Instead of using the standard sour cream, I used low fat Greek Yogurt (Cabot of course) because it is what I had on hand. The good thing about using Greek yogurt is that it has almost double to protein of sour cream. I think it gives the guacamole a tad bit more zing too. Did I mention it’s addictive???

With Cinco de Mayo just a couple days away, you need to go out and grab yourself some avocados so you cam make this! It’s the perfect Cinco de Mayo recipe!!!
Oh and here’s a little tip on storage. You see guac HATES air, oxygen is the mortal enemy.
So to avoid O2 hitting your guac, take a piece of plastic wrap and press it down onto the surface of the guacamole and then cover it with a lid. This will prevent unnecessary browning.
- 3 Avocados, fruit removed
- 2 small Limes, zested and juiced
- 1 Roma Tomato, seeded and finely minced
- 1 Jalapeno, seeded and finely minced
- 1 Clove Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Cilantro, minced
- 1/2 cup Low fat or non fat Greek Yogurt ([url href=”https://www.cabotcheese.coop/lowfat-plain-greek-style-yogurt” target=”_blank”]Cabot[/url] is my favorite)
- 1/4 cup minced red onion (about 1/8th of a medium onion)
- Salt and Pepper
- In a medium mixing bowl, add avocado, lime zest and juice, tomato, jalapeño, garlic,cilantro, yogurt and onion.
- Mash and mix with a spoon until it is only semi chunky.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
