Guacamole is a creamy, flavorful dip originating from Mexican cuisine, traditionally made from ripe avocados mashed with lime juice, cilantro, salt, and optional ingredients like tomatoes, onions, garlic, and jalapeños. Packed with nutrients, avocados serve as the key ingredient and are rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, vitamins C, E, K, and B-6, as well as dietary fiber, which supports digestion. Lime juice adds a boost of vitamin C, while cilantro provides antioxidants. As a plant-based dish, guacamole is naturally free of cholesterol and low in saturated fats, making it a wholesome addition to meals. However, its calorie content can be dense due to the avocados’ fat composition. When paired with fresh vegetables or whole-grain options, guacamole remains a nutritious choice, but it’s advisable to consume in moderation alongside balanced eating habits.
