Avocado salsa

I almost always made guacamole when I had avocados at home, or chicken salad (the recipe iscan be found in the older posts) but I wanted to try out something salsa-like too. In winter, when there are no really tasty tomatoes, this can be the perfect substitute for bruschetta with tomatoes. For that matter, avocado is healthy, full of unsaturated fatty acids, and it's very tasty too :)

Ingredients:

• 2 mellow avocados
• 1 big tomato
• 3 tbl spoons of olive oil
• salt and freshly ground pepper
• juice of half a lemon
• 1 clove of garlic, smashed

Chop the avocado and the tomato, and mix it with the rest of the ingredients. Mix it carefully, don't crush the avocado, because if its mellow it can be smashed very easily, but we want it to stay in bigger pieces this time. Pile it up on a toast and eat it! :) It's better for the taste if it can rest a bit before you eat it. 

Homemade sushi

Making sushi at home is not as hard as it seems. I'm not saying it's cheap (at least for Hungarian standards) but since you decide the amount of ingredients you buy, it's not that bad. We made it with salmon, avocado and cucumber.

Avocado salad with chicken fillet

 I had to come up with a quick recipe with avocados because it's been day 4 since I bought some quite unripe avocados in the store, and they started to ripe very nicely. It is a fact that guacamole is my all time favourite when it comes to avocados but I wanted to create something out of it that can be eaten without tortillas or toast. This is why I decided to make a salad, and I was also in the mood for meat, hence the chicken.

Ingredients

• 2 avocados
• one packet of mini mozzarella balls
• 1 clove of garlic
• lemon juice
• thyme
• salt, pepper

Slice the chicken breast fillets, add some salt and pepper and start frying it. Chop the clove of garlic and add it when the chicken is almost done, fry them together until done. Meanwhile dice the avocados, add the mozzarella balls, the lemon juice, the thyme and some salt and pepper. At last add the chicken and mix the whole salad carefully. You might want to let it rest for a couple of hours but its absolutely delicious right away too :)
