Broccoli Guacamole
This Broccoli Guacamole is gluten free, dairy free, soy free, egg free and nut free. It is also vegan.
Hi All! Trevor and I had an AWESOME Taco Tuesday this week. I made the guacamole extra special (and extra healthy, shh!). I added in some roasted broccoli. Not only did it add extra nutrients, but it also added so much extra flavor. By roasting the broccoli first you get a really nice toasty flavor to the guacamole.
If you have picky kids, or a picky husband like me, this is the perfect twist on a classic guacamole. Trevor loved the guacamole so much and didn’t even notice it had broccoli. The zesty seasonings on the roasted broccoli really add to that complex roasty flavor. For another unique twist, I added Italian Dressing. This gave it a nice brightness and paired well with the broccoli.
