- Top evenly with diced tomatoes and then sprinkle with cheese.
- Sprinkle evenly with green pepper, then green onion, then the black olives and banana pepper/jalapeno slices (optional).

AVOCADO-FETA DIP

Number Of Ingredients 0
Steps:
- Cook 1/2 diced red onion and 1 diced seeded jalapeno in olive oil, 6 minutes. Puree with 1 diced avocado, 1 cup cilantro, 3/4 cup crumbled feta, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 3 tablespoons vegetable oil and salt to taste. Serve with toasted bread and vegetable sticks.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe avocados. Ripe avocados will be dark green or black in color and will yield to gentle pressure when squeezed.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the avocados with a fork or potato masher. However, a food processor will give you a smoother dip.
- Add the lime juice or lemon juice to the dip immediately after mashing the avocados. This will help to prevent the avocados from browning.
- If you want a spicier dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- Serve the dip with tortilla chips, vegetable crudités, or crackers.
Conclusion:
Avocado dip is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it spicy, tangy, or mild, there's an avocado dip recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or appetizer, give avocado dip a try. You won't be disappointed!
