Creamy Lemon SuperFood Guacamole:

This is one of my classic Creamy Lemon Superfood Guacamole recipes.  I have always loved guacamole but making it exceptionally thick and tangy makes it extraordinary.  I have had a lot of people who claim to not like avocado and traditional guacamole that enjoy this recipe.  The coconut milk, apple cider vinegar and the lemon are the secret keys that make this taste amazing!

Dr Jockers Comments:

Avocados are an absolute superfood that should be included in every person’s diet.  I am a strong advocate of eating at least 1 avocado every day in order to reduce inflammation in the body and for healthy skin, hair, nails along with stable energy and improved mood.  Avocados are so great because they are loaded with healthy monounsaturated fats and it is also rich in the powerful carotenoid anti-oxidants lutein and zeaxanthin as well as vitamin E (tocopherol).

These antioxidants decrease oxidative stress and allow for a healthier cellular environment. Other critical components include ionic potassium and folate. These elements are alkaline forming in the body, helping to buffer acidic wastes that accumulate within the human tissue and bloodstream.

A study published in the Journal of Nutrition in March 2005 showed that adding avocados to salad or guacamole with veggies increases the absorption of alpha-carotene, beta-carotene and lutein 7.2, 15.3, and 5.1 times higher, respectively, than the average amount of these carotenoids absorbed when avocado-free salad was eaten.

  1. Thank you,it sounds delicious, is there a recepie for sprouted grain crackers? If so, I would love to make them, for this avocado dish
    Always enjoying your mail.thanks again sincerely Willemina

    1. Willemina
      How about some all organic gluten free crackers from LePaindesflurs.
      I find them locally in Sarasota FL.
      The ingredient list is very short.
      I like the Chestnut, Quiona, and the Buckwheat crispbreads.
      I don’t know why they are called breads since they look like crackers to me.

  2. I like to make a guacamole-like recipe that is so strange that a friend of mine (who absolutely LOVES it) has nicknamed it “Gregamole.” I can’t give you an exact recipe because I never measure anything. I just “eyeball” it. So you’ll have to experiment around to see what works for you.
    I start off with mashed avocado, of course. Instead of Himalayan salt I mix in a generous dose of organic miso which is a very salty probiotic. Then comes turmeric and ginger. When I’m feeling ambitious I grate fresh turmeric and ginger root (about twice as much turmeric as ginger), but when I’m feeling lazy or just don’t have the time for that, I use turmeric and ginger powder. Then comes the “pepper” right out of my pepper shaker, but it’s really approximately 75% black pepper, 15% cloves and 10% black seed, all ground together in my spice grinder. Finally, I mix in a few cloves of freshly pressed garlic. My friend who named it Gregamole also likes to add some cayenne pepper to hers, but I prefer it without.
    This isn’t really “paleo/keto,” (I’m far from being “religious” about that), but my favorite way of eating it is on a Wasa rye cracker. After generously buttering the cracker I add a layer of gouda cheese, spread some Gregamole on that and top it off with either sliced olives or sliced tomato.
