You say tomato, I say tomato, as long as you stuff them with fresh Guacamole I don’t care how you pronounce it!
For years the only Guacamole I ever had was alterized, pasteurized, plasticized, synthesized green mush from a bottle or plastic pouch. Thanks to Master Chef Rick Bayless I finally made fresh Guacamole and fell in love.
Guacamole is so easy to make, and Roma Tomatoes make perfect little bowls resulting in a Fun, Fancy, but Easy Date Night recipe!
The distinctive flavor of my Guacamole recipe comes from tomatillo salsa, lime juice and fresh cilantro for a triple layer of cool refreshing flavor!
This is a great summer recipe. I make it earlier in the day and plate them prior to serving.
INGREDIENTS
4 Roma Tomatoes
1 Ripe Avocado (I prefer Haas from Mexico. If it’s not ripe when you buy it then put it in a brown paper bag to speed up the ripening process)
1/4 Cup Tomatillo Salsa (Available in a small can or jar on the Latin aisle of most supermarkets)
2 T Lime Juice
1 t Minced Garlic
1/3 Cup Chopped Fresh Cilantro
1 t Kosher Salt
Bottled Chipotle Ranch Dressing
INSTRUCTIONS
Cut off the stem end of the tomatoes, then cut them in half and use a spoon to scoop out the inside of the tomato. The idea is that you are creating small bowls for the guacamole.
Cut the avocado in half and twist apart. Tap the seed with your knife, twist and remove. Use a spoon to remove the avocado from the skin. In a small bowl mash the avocado and mix in the cilantro, lime juice, garlic, salt and salsa.
Pour a round circle of Chipotle Ranch Dressing in the middle of a salad plate. Spoon the guacamole into each tomato. Place two tomato halves on each plate in the center of the dressing. Garnish with more cilantro.
Serve and enjoy!
