Pea Guacamole

Recipe comes from the MWL book.

Ingredients:
2 pounds frozen peas, thawed
½ bunch cilantro, washed & trimmed
2 cloves garlic
¼ cup fresh lime or lemon juice
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes.

Directions: Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Variation: For a chunky version of guacamole, stir in one chopped tomato and four chopped scallions.

Letha’s Notes:  The texture and appearance of this recipe is very similar to guacamole, but honestly, it doesn’t taste like avocado guacamole.  Just like bean burgers don’t taste like beef burgers.  But once you get past that, it’s pretty good.
