Hey Fitness Family,

Over the years I have tried various guacamole recipes and finally crafted one that is quick and easy. My kids beg me to make the green stuff for a snack and my husband loves refueling with some fresh guacamole after what he calls a “good Pump” in the weight room.

Here are a few benefits of incorporating avocado into your diet:

Helps with Immunity- Provides vitamin C, B6, helps fight off illness, heal infection, tissue repair and wounds.

Muscles- Helps grow, develop, assist in formation of connective tissue

Helps the body digest and metabolize food turning it into energy

Helps with skin health, teeth, bones and with the cardiovascular system.

Quick Guacamole Recipe:

2 ripe Avocado’s

1 tomato

Mash with a fork or wooden spoon (I love the chunks)

2 squirts of lemon and lime juice

sprinkle of garlic, onion powder, salt and pepper

I really love making a whole wheat quesadilla and placing this on top of it!

Enjoy and Blessings! -Michelle
