Author Notes: A jazzed-up, even healthier version of classic guac. High in protein, vitamin C, healthy fats and plenty of flavor, it's perfect for Superbowl-watching boyfriends or kids. Everyone else will love it, too. - thechocolatefig - thechocolatefig
Food52 Review: Green (peas) meets green (avocado) on green (cilantro) with green (lime) – welcome peacamole. Thechoclatefig‘s recipe is a very clever way to lighten the rich & creamy flavours of your traditional guac, losing nothing but rather gaining – the fresh & assertive herbiness of cilantro (I’m a lover), fragrant lime notes and a dip that can be spread, dunked and slathered, your choice. Dreams of these flavours in a thin soup have haunted me since. - Kitchen Butterfly

made this last night... really good. used Trader Joe's minced ginger and guessed that maybe a TBS would equal a piece. I might have used more. will be interested to see what it's like tonight, after it's been sitting.
