Superfood guacamole with pomegranate seeds - A raw food and vegan recipe
Superfood guacamole? While some consider the avocado a superood in it's own right, pomegranate seeds remain high on the list of the most nutritious superfoods. This guacamole recipe combines the two for a summer superfood boost. This guacamole is also gluten-free, vegan and suitable for a raw foods diet, and, if you're sticking to a raw foods diet, try scooping up this homemade guac with jicama sticks, flax crackers or cucumber rounds.
