Avocado Pate
This is from The California Avocado Commission website.
2 large California avocados 1 tablespoon chopped green onion 4 hard-boiled eggs fresh mint chopped freshly ground pepper 2 tablespoons lemon juice salt to taste 11/4 cup sour cream or mayonnaise 2 cloves garlic, crushed 2 teaspoons chopped olives 11/8 teaspoon sweet parsley paprika - Cut avocados in half, remove seed and carefully scoop out flesh and put in a bowl. Save the avocado skins for serving. - Mash avocado with all remaining ingredients. Replace mixture into shells, smoothing down so as to keep avocado shape. -- This makes a lot - I only made half of the recipe. It was quite good, but next time, I think I'll add an extra egg. It made a really nice dip. :thup: B/f gave it the thumbs up, too. |
Hey that does sound good, I'm glad you said you made half, That was my first thought, I could just see me not just wasting the Avocado, but everything else this time, LOL
Thanks Kathy |
Kristine: Thank you so much for this recipe and for your thoughtfulness in providing the link to the avocada commission ... found some great ideas there... especially about freezing. I buy my avocados at Costco (5 for $4.79Cdn) and usually the last one or two or past their prime. Now I can mash them with some lemon juice/vinegar and put away in the freezer for a dip.
