Creamy Keto Guacamole Salsa
If you like guacamole and salsa verde, then you will LOVE this creamy Keto guacamole salsa. Our guacamole dip combines the zestiness and chunkiness of low-carb veggies and spices with the creaminess of avocado. We guarantee you this is one of the best Keto guacamole recipes you will try.
What goes into this Keto guacamole salsa?
Tomatillos are a base ingredient in this recipe. Also known as Mexican husk tomatoes, these fruits are acidic and firm, giving salsa verde its unique flavor and chunkiness. They might look strange and intimidating, but they are easy to prep. Just peel the husks, rinse the tomatillos, and chop them like you would regular tomatoes.
Avocados are necessary to get the creaminess needed. This is why your avocados must be perfectly ripe. We also add a tablespoon of sour cream to add extra smoothness, but you can skip it if you want this dip to remain dairy-free. Even though this dip is silky smooth, it has some chunks from the tomatillos, which gives an added texture.
Keep in mind that this dip is spicy. If you aren’t a fan of heat, you can use half a jalapeno or none at all. To take the jalapeno flavor to the next level, we roast it over an open flame. This gives the dip another layer of flavor and smokiness. However, you can use fresh pepper if you’d like a subtle salsa.
The garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and salt are needed for seasoning and maintaining the authentic guacamole flavor, but you can adjust the quantities to your liking.
How can you serve this Keto salsa?
This low-carb guacamole salsa is a great dip to serve at parties and gatherings with Keto nachos or crisps. You can also serve this dipping sauce with/over any Mexican dish like fajitas, tacos, burrito bowls, etc. We suggest you try it with this Keto chili lime steak fajita: https://my.carbmanager.com/meals/recipes?dialog=food-detail:ug:8b2b74c0e3dc45dfb37e36fa165b91be
