Greek Guacamole – redo

appetizers· Food· recipes

Greek Guacamole is a redo worth redoing again and again and again.  I do believe that this recipe has been posted here twice already….cut me some slack wouldja this is some good chompin, I need to make sure you all get this one in your repertoire of dips/salads.

Which brings me to the next topic.  Is this a dip or a salad.

 

It really doesn’t matter what you call it!  Greek Guacamole is so darn dig-into-it good!   I first had this recipe at a party, then it turned up in my kids elementary schools cookbook, and the rest is history!  I’ve been pushin’ this stuff on my friends and family ever since!

Chop 3 medium Avocados, 3-4 medium Tomatoes (I like to use Roma Tomatoes), 1/2 medium Red Onion into a bowl.  Chop them chunky, this is a hearty dip, not a sauce.

 

Dressing: 1-2 Garlic cloves minced, 1/2 cup Wishbone Italian Dressing, juice of 1 Lime, 1/2 teaspoon Cumin, 1/4 cup fresh Cilantro chopped.  Whisk this all together or pop it in your food processor.

 

 

Pour dressing over guacamole mixture. Give it a toss, smashing some of the avocado pieces as you go.  Smashing some of the avocado gives this recipe a creamer texture, even though it’s a chunky dip.

 

 

 

Now for the piece de resistance!  Feta Cheese.  Crumble 3/4 cup Feta Cheese over the top.  Stand back, wipe the tear from your cheek and grab a chip baby!

 

 

OR if your heart so desires pile this atop a grilled chicken breast, or a burger,  or just eat it as a side.  It’s a very luverly thing.  This just happens to be Ree’s Tequila Lime Chicken, and since PW once told me this guacamole was “life changing”,  I thought it only fitting to pile it on her chicken recipe.

Sprinkle with Feta Cheese before serving with tortilla chips or piled high on a burger or grilled chicken.

    I would have never thought about adding feta, but that is brilliant! (especially since I love feta!)
    I’m definitely saving this recipe!
