Creamy Guacamole Recipe Is Nutritious Snacking In 5 Minutes (Protein, Fiber, Low Sodium) Snacks Appetizers Vegetarian Gluten-free Budget Recipes Mexican Recipes Low Sodium Recipes

I don't enjoy cooking or the process of preparing food in general, so I'm quick to just grab packaged foods or snacks when I'm hungry. More often than not, those are not super nutritious foods. Either that or I will literally sit there and starve myself out of pure laziness. My relationship with food has never been that great.

As I am working on my health, I have been trying to bring in more nutritious meals that are very quick and easy to prepare. This super simple creamy guacamole recipe is one of them.

It's not a true guacamole, so please don't fight me, Mexican friends and foodies. I am aware it is not authentic – but it can be made in five minutes or less, which is the whole point. No chopping. No real measuring. Not too many dishes or a lot to cleanup. Very hard to mess up, so doesn't require much thought. Very quick, very filling and very tasty. Plus you get the health benefits of Greek yogurt and the health benefits of avocado.

To make this gluten-free, protein-rich, fiber-rich and low-sodium guacamole recipe you will need plain Greek yogurt, ripe avocados, lemon juice, salsa and optional fresh cilantro. Serve this healthy guac as a snack, appetizer or side dish with dinner.
