Grilled Guacamole

The heat from the grill brings out extra flavor and warms it enough to soften the avocado slightly

Ingredients

1 avocado
your favorite salsa
tortilla chips

Directions

Slice the avocado in half length wise and remove the pit.

Put the avocado, flesh side down, on a preheated grill (medium/high heat is best). It took my avocado about 5 minutes to get the pretty grill marks. Since all of our grills have different temperatures, it might take you a different amount of time.

Remove from the grill ad fill the ‘pit hole’ with your favorite salsa. Serve immediately.

If you have leftovers OR if you want to make extra, just use the remaining avocado and salsa and mix it in a bowl and voila, creamy guacamole. The charring on the avocado is delicious in guacamole!

Goat Cheese and Roasted Corn Guacamole

Goat cheese in guacamole!? Yeah. Believe the hype.

 

Ingredients:

 

3 ripe Haas avocados

1/3 cup crumbled goat cheese

corn cut from 1 roasted cob*

1/4 cup chopped fresh chives

2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

3 to 4 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapeno, (I used about 1/3 cup)

coarse sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

tortilla chips for serving

*To roast the corn place corn over a low flame burner and rotate every 10 seconds to char on all sides.  If you don’t have a gas burner, a outdoor grill is wonderful as is the broil setting of your oven. Cut charred corn from the cob once it’s cool enough to handle.

Cut each avocado in half lengthwise.  Remove the pit from the avocado and discard.  Scoop  the meat out of the skin and place in a medium bowl.  Add the goat cheese, charred corn bits, chives, lemon juice, and jalapeno.  Mash with a fork until mostly smooth, but a few avocado chunks remain.  Season with salt and pepper.  Taste and re-season if necessary.  Serve with tortilla chips.  Guacamole can we stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one day.
