Yup, Torie’s mom puts cottage cheese in guacamole, kind of like how Eric’s mother-in-law uses milk (p. 144). Mexican moms know what’s up. Kids love the creamy, nutrient-dense result, and you’ll love how the protein from the cottage cheese balances the fat in the avocado, helping keep blood sugar steady.
4 medium Hass avocados
½ cup cottage cheese
1 small lime, juiced
Salt, to taste
¼ cup minced cilantro, optional
¼ cup diced onion, optional
1- 2 cloves garlic, minced, optional

Scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl and mash with a fork until mostly smooth. Add the cottage cheese, lime juice, and salt. Mix to your desired consistency. Stir in cilantro, onion, or garlic if you want.
