Spicy Corn Guacamole is a refreshing dip, with a good kick of spice and an incredible texture. This plant-based guac is only five ingredients!
I used to not really love avocados. I understood the appeal of them: they have a buttery texture and can be paired with so many foods for an incredible flavor. But for whatever reason I never enjoyed them.
Until a few weeks ago.
Before all this quarantine stuff, I got together with some of my friends. Normally I make my own dips and such, but this was a last minute thing so we ran to the store and grabbed some party-foods, including guac. The guacamole we got was actually incredible.
My favorite part: there was corn in it. For some reason, this changed my perception on guac.
A week or two later, I saw ripe avocados on sale at the store and I got some in hopes of remaking the guac that I bought at the store. I grabbed a couple other simple ingredients and headed home to experiment.
Turns out, making good guacamole isn't actually that hard. It only takes a couple spices to whip up a delicious dip.
Step 1. Start by mashing the avocados. Then chop the jalapeno into small pieces - you want them to be pretty small so they aren't an overwhelming texture in the dip. Add the pepper and about half of its seeds to the avocado.
Step 2. Add the corn, salt, and cayenne to the avocados and jalapeno. Stir to combine. Taste and add more cayenne and/or salt if desired. Enjoy!
Thank you God for inspiration, even when times are tough. Thank you for giving us little joys.
