Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 medium Anaheim chile (or for extra heat, 1 serrano chile)
1 tsp olive oil
5 or 6 fresh asparagus spears, ends trimmed
1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt
2 medium avocados, cut into cubes (about 2 cups)
1 plum tomato, seeded and diced
1 tbsp chopped green onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tbsp fresh lime juice (or more to taste)
Dash garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Baked tortilla chips

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler. Wearing rubber gloves to protect your skin, rub chile with oil; broil 5 minutes, turning with tongs so all sides get charred. Transfer to a plastic bag, seal and set aside to steam 10 minutes. Remove stem, skin and seeds from chile and dice. Set aside. (Remove gloves only when you are finished handling the chile.) Fill medium sauté pan halfway with water and bring to a boil. Prepare a medium-sized bowl of ice water. Place asparagus spears into boiling water 3 to 4 minutes or until just tender. Remove and plunge spears into ice water to halt cooking and preserve color. When cool, remove, dry thoroughly and chop into 1-inch pieces. Transfer to blender or food processor, add yogurt and avocado and process until smooth. Transfer to a mixing bowl and stir in remaining ingredients (except chips). Serve with baked tortilla chips.

This recipe is a waste of time. I've tried it twice and it's never turned out well.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my guacamole turned out brown. I think I might have used old avocados.

This recipe is way too complicated. I'm not a fan of all the chopping and dicing.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my guacamole turned out too watery. I think I might have used too much lime juice.

This recipe is a bit too bland for my taste. I added some chopped jalapeño and cilantro to give it a little more kick.

I'm allergic to avocado, but I was still able to enjoy this guacamole. I just substituted mashed peas.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I always have some on hand in my fridge.

I'm not a huge fan of guacamole, but this recipe changed my mind. The asparagus really makes it something special.

I was skeptical about the asparagus in guacamole, but I was pleasantly surprised. It added a nice sweetness and texture.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The guacamole is creamy and flavorful, and the asparagus adds a nice crunch.
