Edabroccamole Aka Edamame Broccoli Avocado Guacamole


While avocados are delicious and nutritious, they're also high in fat (horrors!)! . This recipe pares the fat down just a smidge by switching out some of the avocado for edamame (green soybeans) and broccoli. I originally saw this on the food network. Providing you like avocado guacamole, and you don't fear soybeans or broccoli, you'll love this too! Fresh bright flavors to complement a tray of baked corn tortilla chips and crudites, or a plate of steaming enchiladas.

Steps


Simmer the peeled edamame in boiling water for 2 minutes or until soft.
Drain.
Blanch the broccoli in rolling boiling water 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Drain.
In a food processor bowl fitted with the steel blade , place the scallion , red onion , garlic , jalapeno , lime juice , tomato , and cilantro.
Pulse until all ingredients are finely minced.
Now add the broccoli and edamame.
Pulse on and off until well incorporated.
Last , add the roughly chopped avocado to the above mixture and pulse until combined but not completely pureed.
Preserve some of the chunky avocado texture.
Taste for seasonings , adding salt and pepper , and perhaps more lime juice.
I also like to fold in the cumin and oregano , although these were not included in the original version', chef's"]".
