How to Make Pesto Guacamole Pestomole

  1. Combine 1 cup plain Greek yogurt and 1/2 cup cottage cheese in a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
  2. With the blender running on high speed, gradually add 2 cloves garlic, 1/2 cup packed fresh basil leaves, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, and 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (or other nuts).
  3. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
  4. In a medium bowl, mash 2 ripe avocados with the juice of 1/2 a lime using a fork until desired consistency is reached.
  5. Gently fold the yogurt/cottage cheese mixture into the mashed avocado. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  6. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lime juice, salt, pepper, or Tabasco for desired flavor profile.
  7. If not serving immediately, cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Allow to come to room temperature before serving for best flavor.
