This white bean guacamole is a great way to add some extra nutrition to your favorite Mexican dishes. It is also a delicious and healthy snack that can be enjoyed on its own or with your favorite chips, vegetables, or crackers.

WHITE BEAN GUACAMOLE
This recipe came from Eden quick recipes pamphlet. The product calls for Eden organic products but you can use whichever brand you have at hand. This recipe is quick, simple, uses all fresh ingredients, however it has a nice kick. I skipped the tomatoes as I feel this is optional and its not needed. I used lime juice from concentrate, and this is fine if you don't have a fresh lime, but don't skimp on the lime as it is the flavor booster. All the recipes are vegetarian, healthy, so if you try out this recipe and like it, let me know and I'll post some more recipes as I work my way on trying them.

WHITE BEAN GUACAMOLE WITH CUMIN-DUSTED CHIPS
Although avocados are full of "good" monounsaturated fats, they do pack on about 30 grams of fat per medium-sized fruit. That's an awful lot of overall calories for a small amount of food. I've used only one avocado in this guacamole recipe and swapped out the rest for small white beans. You really can't taste the difference! You can still enjoy the taste and health benefits of avocados without overdoing the caloric intake. I'm serving mine here with homemade cumin-dusted whole wheat chips.

Steps:
- Combine beans, salt, onion, jalapeno, chipotle, garlic, and lime juice in a bowl. Mash avocados; stir into bean mixture with cilantro. Serve immediately, with chips.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: Look for avocados that are dark green or almost black in color, and slightly soft when pressed gently.
- Use canned white beans: Canned white beans are a great way to add creaminess and protein to the guacamole. Rinse and drain them well before using.
- Add some heat: If you like spicy guacamole, add a jalapeño or serrano pepper to the mix. Remove the seeds and ribs before chopping, to control the heat level.
- Don't over-mash the avocado: The guacamole should be chunky, not smooth. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the avocado until it is just combined with the other ingredients.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Guacamole is delicious served with tortilla chips, vegetables, or even grilled chicken or fish.
Conclusion:
White bean guacamole is a delicious and healthy twist on the classic avocado dip. It is easy to make, and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it spicy, mild, or somewhere in between, white bean guacamole is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
