Ingredients
2 ripe avocados, chopped
¼ cup grape tomatoes, finely diced
⅔ cup feta cheese, cubed or crumbled
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Zest of ½ lemon
¼ cup fresh parsley, minced
1 clove garlic, crushed
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
4 Kalamata olives, finely diced
Optional: Substitute lime juice for lemon and cilantro for parsley for a traditional guacamole flavor.
Instructions
- Prepare the dressing: Whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, oregano, and crushed garlic. Set aside.
- Prep the ingredients: Dice avocados, chop tomatoes, parsley, and olives. Place in a mixing bowl with feta cheese.
- Combine: Pour dressing over the avocado mixture and gently fold to combine. For a creamier texture, lightly mash avocados before mixing.
- Store: Cover tightly with plastic wrap pressed directly on the surface. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- To make this guacamole more traditional Mexican-style, replace lemon juice with lime juice and parsley with cilantro. Remove olives and oregano.
- Fresh, ripe avocados are essential for the best texture and flavor.
- If you like a little spice, add chopped jalapeños or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
