Rancho La Puerta in Tecate, Mexico, is the #1 Spa Resort in America according to Travel and Leisure Magazine. This recipe comes from them. At one time, during the weekly Tuesday Sangria and Guac social, this was the guacamole that was served. The Surprise is that GREEN PEAS replaced part of the avocado, to reduce the fat, and, I think, to add a fabulous flavor. I served this to a group and they all dug in, eating every bit of it! Enjoy!
In a blender or food processor, crush the peas until mostly smooth. In a medium bowl, mash the avocado with a fork or potato masher. Add the lime or lemon juice, tomato, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, garlic, salt, and black pepper, and stir. Add the peas and mix well. Taste and adjust seasonings.
Refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy within 3 days.
