Avocado Salsa

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small shallot roughly chopped
  • 1 jalapeno pepper seeded and roughly chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves roughly chopped
  • 1 tomato seeded and diced
  • 1 avocado pitted and diced
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice from half a lime
  • ¼ cup loosely packed fresh cilantro leaves coarsely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Put the shallot, jalapeno pepper, and garlic in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade and process until finely chopped (a mini food processor is best but large will work too).
  • Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Add the chopped tomatoes, avocado, salt, lime juice, and cilantro to the bow and stir to combine. (If not using right away, see the make-ahead instructions below).

Notes

Make-Ahead Instructions: The avocado salsa can be made up to 8 hours ahead of time; place a piece of saran wrap inside the bowl and directly over the mixture to prevent discoloration and refrigerate.
