Mash up some vegetables and spices, add in a splash of lime and what do you get? Some rockin' guacamole, just like this one featured on Gluten Free Goddess. The thing that sets this guacamole apart from others, aside from a lovely presentation with slices of lime, is that it uses tomatillos and jalapeno peppers, in addition to the fairly standard combination of tomatoes, onions, garlic and avocado. The dip is colorful, packed with flavor and more than enough to be a meal on its own if you're looking for something that doesn't involve any cooking for an easy lunch.
No doubt you noticed that the blog the recipe comes from is about gluten free foods. Guacamole is a great choice for anyone with a wheat intolerance - it's good for just about anyone actually - because it pairs much better than the average dip with corn tortilla chips, one of the favorite snacks of many gluten-free eaters.
