Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ripe small Hass avocados
1 lemon, juiced
1 large clove garlic, minced
1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
1 small plum tomato, seeded and finely chopped
1/2 small yellow skinned onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon coarse salt
Blue corn tortilla chips, for dipping

Steps:

  • Cut avocados in half around the pit. Separate the halves. Pop out pit with spoon, then scoop flesh of avocados into a bowl. Squeeze the juice of a lemon over the avocados. Squeeze the juice with the lemon halves facing cut-side up, allowing the juice to spill down over the sides of the lemon into the bowl. This method keeps the seeds in the lemon and out of the guacamole. Add garlic, jalapeno, tomato, onion and salt to the bowl. Mash and mix the ingredients into a chunky dip using a fork. Serve with blue corn tortilla chips.

CLASSIC PASTA SALAD WITH MOZZARELLA, AVOCADO AND BASIL



Classic Pasta Salad With Mozzarella, Avocado and Basil image

With its colorful jumble of tomatoes, avocado, olives, mozzarella and cucumber, this has everything you've ever wanted in a pasta salad. But feel free to customize the ingredients to suit your own tastes (see Tip), and to add lemon and salt to the dressing to taste. As long as you don't overcook the pasta, and add it while still hot to the dressing, you really can't go wrong. Make this a few hours ahead so the flavors have a chance to meld, but be sure not to add the avocado until just before serving.

Time 25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons minced shallot or red onion
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Fine sea salt, as needed
1 pound short pasta, such as campanelle, fusilli or farfalle
1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted and diced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup sliced cucumber
1 pound fresh mozzarella, cut into bite-size cubes
1/4 cup shaved Parmesan
1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • To prepare the dressing, in a large bowl, whisk together shallot, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper. Let sit for 5 minutes, then whisk in oil. Taste and add more salt and-or lemon juice if needed.
  • Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until it is just al dente, usually a minute less than the package instructions. Drain well. While still warm, add the pasta to the bowl with the dressing and toss well. Let pasta cool, soaking up the dressing.
  • In a medium bowl, gently toss together avocado, lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
  • Just before serving, add tomato, cucumber, mozzarella and Parmesan to the bowl with the pasta and toss well. Gently fold in avocado and basil.
  • Drizzle with olive oil, cracked black pepper and salt to taste before serving.

Tips:

  • Fresh Ingredients: Use the freshest possible ingredients for the best flavor. Especially avocados, use perfectly ripe ones.
  • Avocado Preparation: For easier avocado handling, cut them in half lengthwise, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon.
  • Lemon Juice: A squeeze of lemon juice helps prevent the avocado from browning and adds a nice tang.
  • Pasta Cooking: Cook the pasta al dente according to the package instructions. This will ensure it retains a slight bite.
  • Guacamole Seasoning: Adjust the seasoning of the guacamole to your taste. A good balance of lime juice, salt, and pepper is key.
  • Chopped Vegetables: Use a sharp knife to finely chop the vegetables for a consistent texture.
  • Mixing: Gently mix all the ingredients together to avoid breaking up the avocado too much.
  • Serving: Serve the pasta salad chilled or at room temperature. Garnish with additional chopped cilantro or parsley.

This Millie's Holy Guacamole Pasta Salad recipe is a delightful combination of creamy avocado, tangy guacamole dressing, and a variety of fresh vegetables.
