When I was a Waiter, when I'd serve a salad, I'd bring the pepper grinder to the table, and a number of people would have me grind some pepper into their salads, which seemed inconcievable to me at the time!
Last week, I decided to try sprinkling some black pepper into my salad, and? Why, oh why, oh why, didn't I try this decades ago!!!
Even though I make my own salad dressings, this was the trick I'd been missing all along! Can't imagine eating a salad now without it!
And greek yogurt in your guacamole. Just throw in a couple of spoons. Makes it creamy, adds protein, and if you use 2% or lower even reduces the calories. And is tasty.
Another greek yogurt trick? I mix it with creme fraiche and put it on top of fruit. Depending on my mood, I might mix in a little honey. It adds a nice balance to your fruit, makes it feel decadent. And you get some extra calcium.

At which point it ceases to be guacamole and becomes "avocado dip".

Hahaha. Only a bit. It helps with making it creamy and smooth. . I am talking about around 2 tablespoons for a half cup of guacamole. Try it. Especially when the avos aren't perfectly ripe and mashable. Avocado, tomato, lime, chopped peppers, onion, maybe a little cumin. Salt and pepper and a dollop of yogurt is yummy. The dip is still 75% avo. Vs the avocado dip would be way more yogurt.
I am on my phone, please forgive the typos.
