Stuffed Avocado Recipe
Stuffed Avocado recipe is such an easy dish to prepare and only has a few ingredients, yet they make a superb hors d'oeuvre or appetizer for an apéro table!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 2 firm tomatoes or 8-10 cherry tomatoes
- 1 lemon
- 1 small onion
- 1 teaspoon capers optional
- 1 tablespoon natural yogurt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Cut the avocados in half - simply run a sharp knife around the avocado length-wise and twist the two halves. They should split revealing the stone. Remove the stone.
- Scoop out the avocado flesh without damaging the shells, as you need them for your filling.
- Sprinkle a little lemon juice over the inside of the shells to prevent them turning dark.
- De-seed the tomatoes and cut them into small pieces - it is optional to seed them; I often leave them in, and they are just as good.
- Cut the avocado flesh into small pieces.
- Cut the onion finely.
- Mix the tomatoes, avocados, onions and capers with the yoghurt and sprinkle in the remainder of the lemon juice, the oil and seasoning.
- Chill the mixture in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve your a dish.
- When ready to serve, simply fill the shells with the mixture and dress with a small sprig of parsley.
Notes
- It is easy to substitute different vegetables or simply add them in. Just make a little more dressing.
- Try adding a few shrimp or chunky tuna.
