Tomatoes Stuffed With Guacamole - Tomates Rellenos De Guacamole
5 min | 5 min prep
SERVES 4 -6
4-6 medium tomatoes
salt to taste
2-3 avocados, peeled, pitted, and mashed
2 tablespoons finely chopped onions
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (coriander leaves)
1 teaspoon fresh lime or lemon juice
1-jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped (optional)
lettuce leaf (to garnish) (optional)
1/2-3/4 cup diced tomato
Cut a slice off the top of the tomatoes and scoop out the insides to leave a thick shell.
Sprinkle the inside with a little salt and allow to drain upside down for 15 minutes.
Mix together the avocado, onion, cilantro, lime juice, diced tomatoes, optional jalapeno (although I would NOT recommend leaving it out!), salt, and stuff the tomatoes with the mixture.
Serve chilled or at room temperature on a bed of lettuce leaves if desired.
