Yield Makes 5

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 pine nuts
4 tablespoons fresh goat cheese
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped roasted red bell pepper
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Juice of 1 lime
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 avocado, peeled, halved, seeded, and very thinly sliced lengthwise (about 20 slices)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place pine nuts on a baking sheet; bake until golden brown and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Chop nuts; set aside.
  • Arrange five 8-by-8-inch sheets plastic wrap on work surface. Be sure they are smooth and free of wrinkles.
  • In a small bowl, stir together pine nuts, goat cheese, and red bell pepper; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Place 4 overlapping slices of avocado on each piece of plastic wrap. Combine lime juice and 1 teaspoon olive oil in a small bowl; brush mixture on avocado. Working with one avocado portion, top with 1 tablespoon goat cheese mixture; bring together corners of plastic wrap, and twist tightly, shaping the avocado into a ball. Continue to twist until plastic wrap breaks, releasing canape. Repeat with remaining avocado.

I would have liked a little more seasoning in the avocado mixture.

These canapes were a bit too rich for my taste, but they were still very good.

I'm not a huge fan of avocado, but I loved these canapes. The goat cheese and lemon juice really balanced out the avocado flavor.
