This Clean Eating Vegan Pineapple Guacamole is a nice change from traditional guacamole because it has a slightly sweet taste from the pineapple mixed in with a little heat from the jalapeno.
But, if you want just basic guacamole, make sure you try out my Classic Guacamole recipe which is really good too.
The great thing about homemade guacamole is not only does it cost much less to make at home, but it is super easy to make using just a food processor.
Guacamole is very versatile and can be used with chips, crackers, veggies, in wraps, on sandwiches, on nachos and so much more!
However you make it, just make sure you make it fresh, with real whole food ingredients.
Take a look at the ingredient list in a popular store-bought "guacamole" seasoning packet:
S.A.D. (Standard American Diet) McCormick Guacamole Seasoning Mix
Ingredients: Maltodextrin, Salt, Onions, Non-Fat Dry Milk, Modified Tapioca Starch, Red Bell Peppers, Sour Cream Solids (Cream, Non-Fat Dry Milk, Cultures), Garlic, Corn Syrup Solids, Lemon Juice Solids, Parsley, Lactic Acid, Citric Acid and Natural Flavors
It contains dairy ingredients, GMO's, refined salt and preservatives.
It's a whole lot easier, and healthier, to just season it with a few simple and fresh ingredients like cilantro, garlic, and onions.
Making this recipe takes only minutes and it's raw, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, paleo-friendly and Medical Medium® Compliant.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Guacamole with Pineapple Healthy?
Yes! If you make it from scratch it is a healthy recipe. For example, if you used a store-bought guacamole seasoning packet, it can contain ingredients such as Maltodextrin, Corn Syrup Solids, and Natural Flavors. In addition, some may contain Non-Fat Dry Milk and Sour Cream Solids (Cream, Non-Fat Dry Milk, Cultures) which would not make it vegan or dairy-free.
