Avocados are loaded with many nutrients (nearly 20 essential nutrients, including fiber, potassium, Vitamin E, B-vitamins and folic acid.)and labeled as the most nutritious of all fruits. Its rich supply of vitamins and minerals also makes the diet more wholesome and satisfying.
This avocado dip is very quick and easy to make. It should be prepared just before serving so that it doesn't discolour.
- 1 Ripe avocado, halved, pit removed
- 1 tbsp Lime juice
- 3 Cherry tomatoes, diced
- 1/2 Red onion, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp Parsley, finely chopped
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Halve the avocado and remove the pit. Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado flesh and place in a bowl. Reserve the shells for serving.
- Add the lime juice in bowl and smash together. Stir in diced tomatoes, onion and parsley. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Divide the dip into two reserved avocado shells. Serve with crackers or taco chips.

Avocado, is my go to veggie delight. I may sometimes abuse of it because I like it too much. Your preparation is very appetizing and incredibly inviting with maybe a nice glass of white vino?
Ciao for now and flavourful wishes,
Claudia

Angie, your avocado dip looks fabulous. Can be my light lunch as well. Love it.
I'm so crazy for avocado! I love the way you've presented it too. Brilliant idea!
I should have bought the avocados last week when it was on sale. Bummer! I can't make it now!
WOW! I like this one! It's such a yummy snack for me to have these with some tortilla chips :P
That's too good simple and yummy! I would love to enjoy this with bunch of friends in our babble joint!

Avocadoes are far and above one of my favorite foods! Love this dip. The presentation is gorgeous.

My Fav..awesome clicks..looks so yummy!!!
Hey Angie, this sounds & looks decadently healthy and delicious. I really believe that avocado is a wonder food, so I'm bookmarking this. Our avocado tree will have fruit on it in about three months (hopefully!)...
Just a great looking dip. Will be so good with some corn chips. Great pix too!
Yummy dip love to have with tortillas and chips:)
Beautiful pictures it looks fantastic.
I have some avocados sitting in my fridge, am gonna try this recipe. Looks inviting and yummy. Awesome click.
what a nice twist on guacamole - I love avocados so I would love this!
I love guacamole! Though funny enough I used to hate avocado so much I picked it out of my california roll sushi. Great idea serving this in the avocado shells.
There are few things in life I love as much as guacamole and yours is delightful!
I also adore the way you served it an avocado sheel - very clever!
Ciao, Devaki @ weavethousandflavors
i really like this with chips..the presentation is so superb angie.. really liked it
Your blog and photos always make me so hungry. Lovely presentation...I never thought of using the cleaned out avocado shell (I'm too quick to throw it away). Wish I had two halves of this dip and some chips right now!
They look like individual guacamole bowls and look simply amazing. Cannot wait to verify.
What a pretty presentation! Thanks for the idea!
i adore avocados. your dip and its presentation are excellent!
I hardly make dips. Hey, I suppose I can eat the dip on its own!? It looks wholesome and refreshing.
Beautiful! I love the fact you recycled the avocado "shell" for the dip! Super Cute! Megan
I substituted CILANTRO instead of parsley as it gives it more of a kick than parsley...and I added 1 jalapeno to get the real Mexican flavor.
What a brilliant idea to serve this in the skin!
I really like your blog and i really appreciate the excellent quality content you are posting here for free for your online readers. thanks peace claudia.
