Avocados are anti-inflammatory in nature, as they contain omega-3 fatty acids which have been proven to reduce inflammation within the body. Those seeking to sop up more oil-based nutrients will want eat avocado, as they help with their absorption. Vitamins A, D, E, and K all fall into this category, and with each also playing a role in reducing inflammation, ensuring that they get absorbed into your body efficiently will aid you in repairing the damage done by the excess insulin that flows through your veins.
Ingredients
4 flour tortillas
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt
Pepper
4 avocados, peeled and diced
1/2 cup diced tomato
1/2 red onion, diced
1 scallion, diced
1/4 cup cilantro leaves
1 jalapeño with seeds, sliced
Juice of 2 limes
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 °. Brush each tortilla with about 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cut the tortillas into large wedges. Bake directly on the oven rack until slightly brown and crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Keep an eye on the tortillas, as they can start to burn pretty easily. Transfer to a rack.
Place avocados, tomato, red onion, scallion, cilantro and jalapeño in a molcajete. Add the lime juice and the 1/4 cup of olive oil and season with salt, pepper and crushed red pepper (if using). Mash everything together until you reach the desired consistency (we like to keep some larger chunks of avocado, and blend the rest until it's mostly smooth). Serve with the chips.
