I grew up in Northern California, and I miss the flavors from home all the time. I made up this dip to combine some of my favorite things like avocados, artichokes, and almonds and it's a big favorite at parties!

Tips:

  • For the best results, use ripe avocados. They should yield to gentle pressure when squeezed.
  • To quickly ripen an avocado, place it in a paper bag with an apple or banana. The ethylene gas released by these fruits will help speed up the ripening process.
  • If you don't have time to let the avocado ripen naturally, you can microwave it for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Just be careful not to overcook it, or it will become mushy.
  • To make the dip creamier, use a food processor or blender to purée the ingredients until smooth.
  • If you like a chunky dip, simply mash the ingredients together with a fork.
  • Feel free to customize the dip to your liking. Add more or less jalapeño for spiciness, or swap out the cilantro for another herb, such as parsley or basil.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite dippers, such as tortilla chips, pita bread, or vegetable crudités.
