Nothing But Bueno Guacamole

The tag line for Chobani Greek Yogurt is nothing but good! In celebration of Cinco de Mayo I thought we’d go ahead and change that to: Chobani - nothing but bueno!

I clearly don’t know a lick of Spanish, but I have been known to lick the top of Chobani Greek Yogurt lid. I amor this stuff!

Chobani sent me this guacamole recipe just in time for my Cinco de Mayo fiesta, and I have to tell you it is fantastic! Giving guac a shot of protein? Brilliant! Let’s call their recipe…

Nothing But Bueno Guacamole

  • IMG_80511 cup Chobani® Plain 0% Greek Yogurt
  • 2 medium avocados
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • 2 Tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tsp jalapeno, finely chopped
  • 1 Tbsp garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp lime juice
  • Salt to taste

Preparation

Slice avocado in half lengthwise. Remove pit and discard. Scoop out insides with large spoon and add to bowl. Roughly mash avocado with fork. Add Chobani and remaining ingredients.

Mix until guacamole has desired texture, whether chunky or smooth. Add salt to taste. Kick up the heat by adding extra jalapeños. Serve with Pita chips for a “Greek” twist or use as a tasty spread on sandwiches.

Now I really must go take a dip and a Spanish lesson…it’s all Greek to me!

Oh, I bet that’s nice and creamy. I just recently started loving guacamole, so I’ll def. try this. Though I’ll leave out the cilantro. I’m one of those cilantro haters.

I love the idea of adding Greek yogurt to guac. A little more creaminess and extra protein- what’s not to love?

Happy cindo de mayo!

Totally forgot it was Cinco de Mayo when I was planning menus last week. Rearranged some things and will be making some yummy (but healthy) Mexican food tonight. Can’t wait to make some guacamole – it makes everything better, doesn’t it?
