Ingredients

1 Ripe Avocado


1/2 Cup of Low Fat Sour Cream


1/4 Cup of Red Onion


1 Garlic Cloves


1 Tablespoon of Fresh Lime Juice


1 Tablespoon of Seeded Jalapeño Pepper


A Pinch of Salt


A Pinch of Ground Black Pepper


1/2 Teaspoon of Hot Sauce (Try Tabasco)




Chef's Tip


Always wash your hands very well before cooking or baking.


It's hard to tell if an avocado is ripe, but if it isn't ripe then don't use it because it won't taste good! If the Avocado is too ripe, and turning a little brown, that's OK, you can still use it! Not too brown though...


If you don't like spicy food, or can't eat it, leave the jalapeño out!



Serving Suggestion.


You can serve this Spinach Avocado Dip with Tortilla chips, with Crudites, or even mix a tablespoon with freshly cooked pasta!


You can also keep it in the fridge for 3 days, as long as it is tightly covered with cling film.


Method



STEP 1

Chop Chop it's prep time! Slice your avocado from top to bottom, all the way round the stone. Very carefully remove the stone, then scoop the avocado out using a spoon. Finely shop your red onion, deseed and chop your Jalapeño. Ask for help if you need it.


STEP 2

Add all your ingredients into the blender.


STEP 3

Blend it until it is smooth!


STEP 4

Serve in a nice fancy bowl.
