While avacados may contain fat, it is  healthy fat and they are packed full of folic acid and other great vitamins. This dip is easy to make and is always a hit. This is a light twist to classic guacamole. Serve with chips and watch your guests devour.

Ingredients

3 ripe avacados

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (optional)

1 tbsp lemon juice

1/4 tsp. garlic powder

salt and pepper to taste
