Easy Peasy Green Pea Guacamole

Hello SoS readers!

My name is Allie and I write the blog Live Laugh Eat. I am a recent college graduate trying to figure out my place in the ‘real’ world. Live Laugh Eat was once a this-is-everything-I-ate blog but it has slowly transitioned to a blog featuring my kitchen experiments, daily meals/snax, reflections on life, and food/non-food photographs.

I like to tell people that my blog is like a box of chocolates. Ya never know what you’re gonna get!

Well, today you’re gonna get one of my favorite recipes: Green Pea Guacamole.

You can make this for a Mexican-themed dinner, a football gathering, or just when you want quick and healthy snack

The green peas add a sweet flavor to the dip while maintaining the creamy guacamole texture. Give it a try and see if your guests/family members can tell there is an extra veggie in there!
