This is my go to recipe whenever I need something fresh and delicious in minutes flat. Chilli guacamole is incredibly easy to throw together and genuinely costs just a few dollars to make. The beautiful thing about avocados is that they're packed with heart healthy monounsaturated fats that actually keep you satisfied and energized. I love how the heat from the red chillies cuts through the richness of the avocado while the lime and fresh coriander brighten everything up. It's perfect for a quick snack, a party dip, or spooned onto just about anything really. With zero cooking involved, you'll have this ready in fifteen minutes or less.
