Avocado Tofu Dip PDF Print E-mail
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
  • 1 package silken tofu
  • 2 avocados
  • 3 tablespoon your favorite oil (olive, flax, hemp)
  • 2 tablespoon cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (1 1/2 for more kick)
  • 1 teaspoon tamari
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 small onion, minced
  • a little salt & pepper to taste
  • chili powder to garnish
Directions:

Throw it all in a blender and let it rip.

Use for pumpernickel, flat bread or veggie dip, or whatever you like to dip most.

This is incredibly smooth & rich. It's mild, so not overwhelming. Of course, the seasonings can be upped a bit for added kick, but for me the richness does it all. Great for a hot summer day like today when you can't bear to turn on the stove!

Preparation time: 10 minutes tops
