Ingredients
- 1 cup green peas thawed if frozen
- 1 cup edamame thawed first if using frozen, then removed from the pods, look for pre-shelled frozen edamame to save a step)
- 1 4 ounce can Hatch green chile already peeled; mild works well if you're not sure about spice level
- 1 jumbo avocado halved and pit removed
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 medium Roma tomato cut into small ¼-inch cubes
- ½ small red onion cut into small ¼-inch cubes
- 1 whole jalapeno seeds and white membrane removed, then finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, and more for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, scoop the avocado out of its skin and add the peas and edamame. Use a fork to mash everything together until mostly smooth, leaving a few small chunks for texture. For extra smoothness you can puree in a food processor.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients (chile, lime juice, chili powder, cumin, tomato, onion, jalapeño, garlic, and cilantro) until well combined.
- Cover and chill in the fridge for 15 minutes. This helps the flavors blend together.
- Serve with baked tortilla chips or jicama sticks, and top with extra cilantro if you'd like.
