Ingredients
Directions
Bring a medium stovetop pot halfway filled with water to a boil.
Add the frozen sweet peas and blanch for 5 minutes before draining and transferring to a food processor.
Add avocado, mint, chives, lemon juice, and ice, and blend until smooth. Add salt, if using, and blend once more to incorporate.
Taste and adjust to your liking (for more freshness add more mint, for a stronger onion flavor add more chives, or for more zing add more lemon juice).
Transfer Pea and Avocado Dip to your favorite serving bowl and serve with an assortment of julienned vegetables and whole grain crackers.
Chef’s Notes
Substitutions
In place of peas try chickpeas; edamame; green, brown, or black lentils; mung beans; or white beans.
In place of mint try basil.
For an onion-free dip, omit the chives.
Storage
Store leftover Pea and Avocado Dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
