Dippy Pea Guacamole
perfect for dipping veggie sticks in!
Chunks of avocado can be very slippery to hold onto, so to make it easier try mashing them up with some peas!

Ingredients
- 30 g/1 oz frozen petits pois
- ½ small avocado, stoned
- 1 teaspoon lime or lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons baby’s usual milk
- A few coriander leaves, finely chopped (optional)
- 1 soft wholemeal tortilla cut into fingers, to serve
- Steamed vegetable sticks, to serve
Method
- Steam or boil the petits pois in a small saucepan over a medium heat for 3–4 minutes until tender. Drain, if necessary, + tip into a bowl.
- Scoop out the avocado flesh into the bowl + pour in the citrus juice + milk. Using the back of a fork, mash together until almost smooth. Alternatively, purée using a hand blender. To make the purée smoother, pass it through a sieve after blending.
- Stir in the coriander (if using). Serve with the tortilla + vegetable sticks.
