AVOCADO, TOMATO & FETA CHEESE APPETIZER
This came in the mail from a Ralphs Grocery Store flyer. My whole family loved it. I didn't have cumin, so I used coriander and it was great. I served this with "Sesame Thin" crackers from Trader Joes and "Just Chips" from Just Off Melrose.

Steps:
- Combine the avocados, tomatoes and onion in a bowl. Mix gently. Stir in cilantro. Add feta cheese, olive oil, vinegar, cumin and salt and mix until combined. Chill covered in the refrigerator. Serve with warm pita wedges, tortilla chips or crostini. Refrigerate leftovers.
Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: Look for avocados that are dark green or almost black, with no bruises or blemishes. They should yield slightly to gentle pressure.
- Cut the avocados evenly: Use a sharp knife to cut the avocados in half lengthwise, around the pit. Then, use a spoon to scoop out the pit and remove any remaining flesh from the center.
- Season the avocado halves: Before filling them, sprinkle the avocado halves with salt, pepper, and lemon juice to enhance the flavor.
- Use fresh, flavorful ingredients: Choose ripe, juicy tomatoes and feta cheese that is creamy and tangy. You can also add other ingredients to your liking, such as diced red onion, chopped cilantro, or crumbled bacon.
- Bake until the cheese is golden brown: Keep an eye on the avocados while they are baking. The cheese should melt and turn golden brown, but you don't want to overcook them or the avocado will become mushy.
Conclusion:
Avocado halves stuffed with tomato and feta are a delicious and easy appetizer or light meal. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or a quick and healthy snack. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. So next time you are looking for something new and exciting to try, give this recipe a try!
