A good guacamole recipe is hard to come by, but the search ends here. This recipe is DELICIOUS and loaded with the vegetables to pack more flavor. It is the perfect addition to a meal or as a dip. Avocados offer Vitamin K, Vitamin E, Pantothenic acid (B5), and pyridoxine (B6). A common myth is that avocados are a good source of Omega 3s; however, one would need to eat many avocados to have get enough Omega 3 to have a therapeutic effect (1.5-3.0 g / day of Omega 3s reduces risk of heart disease – which is 7.9-15.7 cups of avocado). Avocados are mainly monounsaturated fats- particularly oleic acid (Omega-9). They do have some polyunsaturated fats; for 1 cup of avocado, there is 2.51 g linoleic acid (Omega 6) and 0.19 g linolenic acid (Omega 3). ​
