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 (30 ml) cottage cheese (or cream cheese for creamier texture)

- 1 tbsp (15 ml) fresh chopped parsley leaves
- 1/2 tsp powdered coriander
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt, to taste

Instructions
- 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.
- Place the avocado in a bowl and sprinkle with lime juice to prevent browning.

Notes
- For a creamier texture, substitute cottage cheese with cream cheese or sour cream.
