Not only is Cinco de Mayo this weekend, but the Kentucky Derby is on Saturday as well. With that being said, I know I’ll be consuming a number of drinks and not-so-great food. But, I thought I could at least contribute a dish that was really delicious and pretty healthy – Kale Guacamole. I got this recipe from my good friend, Lisa Consiglio-Ryan (of Whole Health Designs). She has tons of really great recipes so be sure to check out her blog or Facebook Page!

Ingredients:

•  1 bunch kale
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 ripe avocados, flesh removed
• 1 small red onion, diced finely
• 1 medium tomato
• 2 tbsp lime juice
• Sea salt and pepper

Directions:

• Peel the garlic
• In a food processor, chop kale leaves and garlic
• Dice onion and tomato
• Mash avocado in a bowl
• Add avocado to the onion and tomato combo and mix together
• Add the garlic and kale mix to the avocado mix
• Add lime juice
• Add sea salt and pepper to taste
