Guacamole is another one of those things that is definitely worth making instead of buying. That way, you can be sure what’s in it – and know that it won’t contain any nasties!
This is how I make mine.

Pestle and mortar
Chopping Board
- 4 chillies finely sliced
- Small bunch coriander cilantro, finely chopped
- 3 tomatoes finely diced
- Sea salt to taste
- 1 red onion finely diced
- Juice of ½ lime
- 4 ripe avocados
Prepare the Ingredients: Use a pestle and mortar to grind together the chillies, coriander (cilantro), tomatoes, sea salt, and onion until you reach a paste consistency.
Add Lime Juice: Add the lime juice and a dash of water if required to make the mixture more fluid.
Mash the Avocados: Just before serving, mash in the avocados to the mixture until well combined.
Guacamole is one of those foods best made fresh. While it will store in the fridge for a short time, it won't look as appealing! If you need to make it in advance, using more lime will help it keep that bit longer. Guacamole is great with almost any Paleo meal and makes a fantastic dip for raw vegetables – particularly alongside some homemade pâté!
