    Hate eating your greens but LOVE guacamole? Well then.. this recipe is for you! I love to add some kale into guacamole to not only get more greens into our diet but also add more texture. It bulks up the guacamole and makes it a little less heavy. It’s perfect for making our tomato avocado toast or scooping onto some dairy-free nachos.

    Avocados are the main ingredient for guacamole. It provides a rich and creamy base that’s completely plant-based.

    In addition to the avocado, you’ll also need kale, red onions (or sweet onion), cilantro, garlic, lime, and a little salt. Jalapeno is optional for some heat.

      I’ve been on a huge kale kick right now and this looks and sounds spectacular! I also appreciate that all the ingredients are clean, fresh, and easy to whip together. A perfect upgrade to guacamole!
