Recipe: Avocado Nachos Dip with Coriander
Healing foods avocado - No Cook
February 08, 2010


Newborn corianderSometimes it seems that I can't have enough fresh coriander. I sow it three times:
- in September to harvest the leaves during winter
- in January to harvest the leaves in spring
- in March to harvest the leaves during summer and the seeds in autumn

So now I'm harvesting fresh leaves from the autumn plants, and these in the picture are the newborn January plants.
This is my trick to prepare fresh dishes like this even in winter.

150ml white yogurt
1/2 tsp of Taco Seasoning Mix

Peel and deseed the avocado, then smash it into a puree. Add the minced coriander, the yogurt and the taco seasoning mix.
Serve as a nachos dip.
