Lightened Up Guacamole
Ok so I love my guacamole! If you’re anything like me, you can eat the entire bowl so I have a little trick for you to stretch the avocado... blend it with peas!
As most of you know I am a #wwpartner (down 8 pounds since I started!) and this little trick saves you a lot of points! I know it sounds a little odd, but it really does taste great!!! Steamed asparagus also works, so take your pick. For @ww points, it is 2 points for blue or purple plan, and 3 points for green plan. *People following the WW program can expect to lose 1-2 pounds/week
