STUFFED AVOCADO
Steps:
- Cut avocados in half; remove pits and gently scoop out insides, leaving shell intact. Combine the avocados, scallions, cucumbers, radishes, tamari, oil, garlic, and add to shells. Top with yeast, sprouts and sesame meal.
- *Sesame Meal: Mix 1/2 cup of sesame seeds and 1/4 teaspoon salt, grind in nut or coffee grinder in 2 tablespoon increments.
- CURTIS' QUICK AVOCADO DRESSING
- In a blender place peeled avocado, add a pinch of chile powder, juice of one lime, salt and pepper, and add some nonfat yogurt. Thin with ice water if necessary. Blend to a pouring consistency. Serve over mesclun, pink grapefruit segments and diced red pepper.

- Oxygen, or exposure to air is what causes your guacamole to turn brown. Making guacamole, or any avocado dish in advance make certain that you block out the air by making sure the surface of your dip is in contact with the plastic wrap.
STUFFED AVOCADOS WITH SUIZA SAUCE

Steps:
- Combine the chicken thighs, rotel, bouillon cube, water and taco seasoning in a deep pan. Heat to boiling, then cover and reduce heat. Cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally to break up the chunks of chicken and "shred" them. After 1 hour, remove lid and continue to simmer and stir to shred chicken until all the liquid has cooked down.
- Allow chicken mixture to cool completely (I put mine in the freezer to speed up the process). This recipe is for 2 stuffed avocado patties, there will be plenty of leftover chicken though (I use it for burrito and taco filling, or in burrito bowls, yum!).
- Portion out 2 patties of chicken, (as big or small as you'd like, but I made mine about 2 large handfuls worth).
- Mash the two avocados, (and this is the messy part) and put a coating of mashed avocados on top of each patty. Place in the freezer to harden for a few minutes.
- Remove hardened patties from the freezer and turn over. Put a coating of mashed avocados on the other side of the patty.
- Heat vegetable oil to medium high heat in a deep frying pan.
- Carefully roll the avocado coated chicken patties in flour until well coated and try to shape them into perfectly round shapes.
- Combine the egg and buttermilk in a bowl and whisk thoroughly.
- Carefully dip (or pat on, as I did) the buttermilk mixture onto the patties.
- Dip the battered patties into the panko crumbs until thoroughly coated.
- Carefully place the breaded patties into the hot oil and fry both sides until golden brown (about 2 minutes or so per side, but keep an eye on them- they cook fast!). Remove and transfer to a paper towel lined plate.
- Combine the verde enchilada sauce and the sour cream thoroughly in a microwave safe bowl and heat for about 2 minutes, or until heated through.
- Pour a generous amount of the verde sauce over the patties and top with shredded cheese. Don't worry, the patties will still stay pretty crispy.
- Serve with borracho beans and green chili rice (from this site) and enjoy!
