Everyone should know how to make the perfect Guacamole! This easy keto-friendly salad that goes great as a side with barbecue meat. This recipe is one of the many low-carb recipes in our KetoDiet App and I use it as an ingredient in several other keto recipes.
It's a great way to include avocados into your diet. Avocados are not only high in heart-healthy monounsaturated fatty acids and fibre but they are exceptionally high in potassium which is an important electrolyte that will help you beat keto-flu.
Note: Lime juice, chile pepper, cilantro and salt should be used to taste. Start with less and add more if needed. You can also reduce the amount of tomatoes or replace it with more avocado. If you're not a fan of cilantro, use fresh parsley instead
