Time 30m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ripe avocado
1/2 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated (you may need more depending on desired size of tart shells)
cilantro, chopped
tomatoes, diced
green onion, chopped
black olives, sliced

Steps:

  • Combine the avocado, minced garlic, mayonnaise and lemon juice in and blend to desired consistency (chunky or smooth - your choice). Add salt to taste. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Heat a large frying pan or griddle on medium-high heat. Drop tablespoon-fulls of the grated cheese directly on the ungreased frying pan/griddle. Use a spatula to shape the melting cheese into circular shapes. Allow the cheese to bubble and once the oil begins to separate from the cheese and the entire surface is covered in tiny bubbles, use a spatula to transfer the cheese disc to an ungreased mini muffin pan. Press the cheese disc into the shape of each muffin cup. This must be done quickly as the cheese needs to still be hot to shape properly. Allow to cool for 3 or 4 minutes and remove from the muffin tins. The cheese will now be a crispy "tart" shell. This step can be done several hours in advance.
  • When ready to serve, spoon a teaspoon of the avocado mixture into each tart shell. Top with any combination of cilantro, tomato, green onion or olives to serve.

I'm not a huge fan of avocado, but I loved these tarts! The avocado flavor is subtle and the cheese and walnuts really balance it out.

These tarts are a great way to use up leftover avocado. I always have a few avocados on hand, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.

The tarts were easy to make and didn't take too long. I used a store-bought low-carb tortilla for the crust, which saved me some time.
