Ingredients:

  • 2 large ripe avocados (approx. 12 oz / 340g)
  • 4 oz (113g) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) fresh lime juice
  • ½ tsp (3g) garlic powder
  • ½ tsp (3g) fine sea salt
  • ¼ tsp (1g) cracked black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Halve the avocados and remove the pits. Use a large spoon to scoop the flesh into a food processor.
  2. Add the softened cream cheese, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the processor.
  3. Pulse several times to break up the avocado, then blend on medium-high for 30–60 seconds until the mixture is a glossy, uniform pale-green cream with no visible lumps.
  4. Taste the dip and adjust consistency by adding a teaspoon of lime juice or water if it is too thick, and add a pinch more salt if needed for flavor.
