Avocado and Tempeh Dip

This recipe from www.tempeh.info is a fabulous way to up the nutrition profile of your guacamole, adding some of that ever-important protein.  This recipe is very basic, so feel free to add your favorite spices, and if you like it hot, throw a jalepeno, serrano, and/or cayenne pepper into the mix!  Serve as a dip with veggies or corn chips, or add a scoop to your next burrito.

Ingredients
  • Half a package of tempeh, cut into ~ 1 inch cubes (150g)
  • 1 avocado
  • 1/4 cup oil (olive, grapeseed, or softened coconut is fine)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon onion, minced
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 or 2 hot peppers (optional)
Directions:
  1. Mix all ingredients in a blender until smooth.
