Summertime, and the living is easy when you've got avocado salsa on the table or, better yet, a picnic blanket. Here is a way to jazz up tortilla chips, rice, beans, quesadillas, you name it, with delicious ripe avocado and fresh tomato.
Instructions
Make Avocado Salsa
1. Make sure to choose a ripe avocado from the produce section of the grocery store. When you push in the skin, it should give a little without being mushy.
2. Using a sharp knife, slice avocado in half lengthwise. You may remove the pit by "stabbing" it and pulling it out, or simply cutting gently around the pit, then removing it.
3. Chop avocado, tomato and tropical fruit. Mix gently in bowl.
4. Add fresh lime juice or lemon juice and finely chopped white onion, if desired.
5. Stir again, careful not to over mix. Salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with cilantro and serve in a festive bowl alongside tortilla chips.
6. Garnish with cilantro and serve in a festive bowl chips.
