Edamame Guacamole

Ingredients

1 cup frozen shelled edamame, thawed

1 small ripe avocado, peeled and pitted

1 canned Chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, finely chopped (optional)

1/3 bunch of cilantro

1/4 white onion, roughly chopped

Juice of 2 limes

Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Put edamame, avocado, Chipotle, cilantro, onion and lime juice in a food processor and pulse until almost smooth. Add enough water (about 2 Tbsp.) to make a creamy consistency and pulse again. Transfer guacamole to a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
