Asparagus Guacamole

I made it without the cilantro, because I don’t have any, and it was bland. Then I added 4 oz of cream cheese, 1 teaspoon of taco seasoning, a little hot sauce, and an extra 1/2 cup of salsa. It was very good! (The cream cheese was a suggestion from a previous reviewer.)

these should be called sparagmole! lol because guacamole is avocado dip and avocado in Spanish is aGUACAte. overall the dip is real good

I didn’t measure anything and I’m not sure if I made a mistake, but mine came out as more of a pico de gallo. I would still make it again because it sounds intriguing with company, but I’d try different flavors of salsa to add find the best complimentary one. I have only tried with a medium heat chunky salsa with cilantro

I would have used one avacado, and I reccomend adding a lime or lemon to spruce it up. It was super easy, I liked that.

I just threw in steamed asparagus and some salsa in my FP, that’s it. Super easy and tasty. Can’t wait to try it out on my kids!

This was an amazing recipe! I made it for a dinner party I was having and it was gone way before dinner was ready! They all asked me if there was any more and for the recipe. I finally have something I can share with my vegan boss too. She’s gonna love it!!!!!

Just made this and it is pretty great. After reading the reviews, I did add 2 tbsp fat free cream cheese, and I also added 2 tbsp fat free mayo (we’re on a diet). I think I should have added the cream cheese and fat free sour cream instead. We also added jalapenos for spice. I would say go heavy on the garlic, cilantro, and spice as it can be a little bland. It isn’t like avacado guacamole, but we used it as a spread on a veggie sandwhich and it was quite similar!

This is such a lower fat option from regular guacamole! I made a few changes to original recipe. I used “Big Y” grocery store “Cilantro salsa”, I used a complete bunch of Cilantro, skipped the garlic as salsa had it in it. I added a little avocado instead of cream cheese to help the consistency that another reviewer suggested and it kept the fats healthy. People raved about this recipe at the super-bowl party.

I just made this and thought it was wonderful. I did make a few adjustments. I add a good tablespoon of freshly chopped cilantra. I added atleast a cup of salsa. I pureed my asparagus to get more of a guacamole texture. I also added about a tsp of scorned woman (super hot, hot sauce). To give it a little bite. Normally, I only use a drop of that stuff. I got my husband and kids to eat this. NO ONE could guess what the main ingredient was so I DIDNT tell them!!!

I made this recipe for the fact that we had asparagus in the garden and I love guacamole. I also just happened to be making my own salsa that day which I added to the recipe. I took the advice to add cream cheese. I served this for an appetizer for dinner and the kids were disgusted that we would make guac without avacado. The bowl was devoured in 30 min. Need I say that it was a hit. My boyfriend just asked me to make more…..please!!!

I love and have fresh asparagus in my garden, what better way to enjoy my favorite Mexican dish with a fraction of the fat and calories! I added a little lime juice, a few TBS of cream cheese and upped the cilantro – amazing!

Very good! I found the garlic to be a bit overwhelming, but this recipe is tasty and creative. I added a bit of lime juice and used more cilantro than called for. Thanks! 🙂

I love this… I also took the advice of the other comments and added about 2 oz. of fat-free cream cheese and about 1/3 of an avocado, and it came out amazing. I will definitely be making it again!

Lot of great reviews and suggestions, but i prefer to eat my asparagus as asparagus, and my guacamole made traditionally with avocados, fat and all. I just really didn’t care for the texture (not creamy) with the asparagus. i felt like i wasted what could have been a yummy bowl of cooked asparagus.

I liked this but the recipe needs to be tweaked. I followed others advice and added low fat cream cheese. I will add more next time. I also added some saracha for heat. I didn’t have salsa so I improvised, having salsa may improve the flavors as well.

It was a little watery, but the flavor was really good. I served it with homemade tortilla chips

Not much flavor. I even tried to perk it up with some garlic salt, but it did not work.

This recipe is good and resembles guacamole, but it is pretty far from the real deal. I stuck with the recipe, and it came out pretty good. Add salt for taste, and use thick salsa so that it does not come out watery. I think that adding cream cheese would definitely help the texture.

Very good – -I used one avacado and one bunch of the asparagus! Husband had NO idea! Thank you

This is great! I will definitely make this again. I used 12 oz. frozen asparagus, no green onions, and a generous amount of Adobo (salt/white pepper/oregano seasoning). but I think I will be a little more conservative with the garlic next time. Maybe press only 1 clove, then taste and add another if needed. Its really a very good substitute for guacamole. Ole! Yume!

This is a great recipe. It is amazing how much asparagus it takes to make a bowl full of guacamole. I totally faked out my 15 year old daughter, she had no idea it wasn’t avocado. I might try adding some low fat sour cream next time. I used lime, cilantro, dried hot red pepper, diced tomato, chopped onion, and salt.
