INGREDIENTS:

• 2 ripe avocados

• 2 tsp finely diced & deseeded pickled jalapeños

• 4 tbsp finely diced red onion

• 4 tbsp diced & deseeded Roma tomatoes

• 1 lime (juiced)

• 2 tbsp fresh coriander leaves (rinsed, patted dry, and julienned)

• Salt & pepper to taste (~1/2 tsp each)

• 4 tbsp pomegranate seeds

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Prepare the Avocados:

   • Cut the avocados lengthwise, carefully using the knife to hit the seed and twist it out.

   • Score both halves of the avocado while still in the skin into cubes.

   • Scoop the cubes out with a medium-sized spoon and place them into a bowl.

2. Combine Ingredients:

   • Add the pickled jalapeños, red onion, Roma tomatoes, lime juice, and fresh coriander to the avocado cubes.

   • Gently mix, being careful not to mash or bruise the avocado cubes, so they retain some shape and texture.

3. Top with Pomegranate:

   • Sprinkle the pomegranate seeds over the top and gently mix.

4. Season:

   • Add salt and pepper to taste (~1/2 tsp each).

Tips:

• Make sure the avocados are not overripe — they should have a bit of firmness but not be hard. Hass avocados are ideal for this recipe.

This Avocado Salsa with Pomegranate is a perfect combination of creamy, tangy, and slightly sweet flavors. Great with chips, tacos, or as a side dish! 🥑🍅🌶️
