Description

This avocado spread is a delightful twist on classic guacamole, featuring cottage cheese for a creamy texture and a hint of spice.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 2 tbsp cottage cheese (or cream cheese for creamier texture)
  • 1/2 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • Pinch of powdered chili
  • 1 tbsp fresh chopped parsley leaves
  • 1/2 tsp powdered coriander
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Wash the avocados, cut them in half lengthwise, remove the stone, and scoop out the flesh. Alternatively, peel them and cut the flesh into cubes.
  2. Place the avocado in a bowl and sprinkle with lime juice to prevent browning.
  3. Use a fork to mash the avocado, leaving some small chunks for texture.
  4. Add the diced tomatoes, cottage cheese, chopped onion, minced garlic, powdered chili, fresh parsley, and powdered coriander to the bowl.
  5. Mix everything together until well combined.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve immediately or cover the surface with cling film to prevent browning if making ahead.

Notes

For a creamier texture, substitute cottage cheese with cream cheese or sour cream. If you can’t find fresh coriander, use dried powdered coriander. To prevent the avocado spread from browning, cover it with cling film and store in the refrigerator. This spread is perfect for serving with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos.
