Recipe by Avocados from Mexico, makes 3 cups.
Ingredients
2 fully ripened Mexican avocados
1 cup diced tomato
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1-2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon tequila
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
Cut avocados lengthwise around middle; remove pits with a knife blade; twist avocados to separate halves; scoop out halves with a spoon; dice. In a medium-sized bowl, combine avocados, tomatoes, cilantro, lime juice, tequila and salt; toss gently. Cover surface with plastic wrap; chill until ready to serve.
Spoon salsa into a small serving bowl. Or, if desired, rub a lime wedge around the rim of a margarita glass; dip rim in kosher salt; fill glass with salsa (refill as needed). Garnish with a lime wedge or cilantro sprig and serve with tortilla chips, jicama slices or sweet red bell pepper slices.
Wine ideas: Don’t mess with Tequila. Have more of the same on the side, or abstain with this course. -Tara Q. Thomas
