This is basically guacamole’s high-protein cousin.

Tofu and ripe avocado get blended with garlic, fresh ginger, tahini, parsley, lemon juice, and a spoonful of applesauce into a velvety smooth dip that scoops up on anything.

No cooking, no fuss. Just toss everything into the food processor and let it rip.

Serve with pita chips, raw veggies, or spread it thick on a sandwich. It’s one of those recipes that punches way above its five-minute prep time.

Kitchen Tips

  • Use silken tofu for the smoothest, creamiest consistency.
  • Add the lemon juice right away to keep the avocado from browning.
  • Swap tahini for peanut butter if that’s what you have on hand. Both work great.
  • This keeps well in the fridge for up to 2 days. Press plastic wrap directly against the surface to prevent browning.
