The last few months of intense cookbook-ing have been a complete blur, but I know that someone mentioned kale guacamole somewhere along the way. I think my friend Colleen said Whole Foods offers it? I love kale, and I love avocados, so I couldn’t resist the temptation to remix a classic.

After trying kale guacamole, I can report that I’m a big fan. It’s extra fresh and green, thanks to the kale, which mostly disappears into the guacamole but adds a nutrition boost along the way. Granted, classic guacamole is perfect as is, but if you’re looking to change things up, give this guacamole a try. It’s especially easy to make if you have a food processor, although you can make it by hand, too (see my recipe notes).
