Guacamole goodness edges out chips and dip
Take a look at guacamole and salsa, the chef suggests. A southern-style salsa is well known for its high nutritional value of fresh tomatoes, onion and peppers—and a classic guacamole is also packed with nutrients, essential oils, disease fighting antioxidants, and a full array of heart-healthy compounds.
Finding time to cook and entertain can be a challenge. One preservative-free product the chef recommends is the all-natural, Wholly Guacamole. She says it's her year-round party favourite as a dip, spread, or condiment. “Made with the freshest chunks of hand scooped avocado, this brand really is as wholesome as its name suggests,” Chef Schaertl continued. “It's loaded with avocados so it has countless vitamins and minerals, plus the good fat that helps to reduce cholesterol. There's no doubt that this all-natural recipe is the key to its flavour.” Conveniently, you can purchase Wholly Guacamole in the refrigerator produce section of the larger retailers and due to the “cold pasteurization” packaging, you can either serve it right away, keep it unopened in the fridge for at least 45 days, or freeze it in the event of unexpected guests. “And at only 25 calories per tablespoon this classic makes for the easiest summer dip, the tastiest spread, or as my favourite, a sensational topper for grilled meats.” Chef Schaertl's Insider Tip: try adding some freshly chopped ingredients such as cilantro, onions, tomatoes, peaches or mangoes to impress the crowd as homemade. www.newscanada.com |

“The trick is to keep a small stash of ready-made party foods in the freezer, especially the type that can also be served at any one of your family meals,” says Chef Jennifer Schaertl, author of Gourmet Meals in Crappy Little Kitchens. “Wholesomeness is key so the trend these days is to combine ultimate taste with ultimate goodness—and that means planning beyond the standard chips and dip.”
