Creamy Guacamole


I have been preparing this guacamole with a twist for 20 years and I still love it. It is mild and creamy, really refreshing in summer. It can be used as a companion for fajitas or quesadillas or as a dip.


Ingredients:
* 1 ripe avocado
* 1/2 medium size onion
* 1 plain non fat yogurt
* Juice of 1/2 lemon
* 1 teaspoon of yellow mustard
* Pinch of salt

Peel the avocado, retire the seed and chop it in pieces. Peel the onion and cut it in 2 or 3 pieces, to crush it more easily. Put all the ingredients in a food processor, crush them and then puree them, until smooth.


Preparation time: 10 minutes
