In all fairness, I have to start this post off with a confession. I didn’t eat any of this tomato and avocado salsa. Reasons being, I don’t like the texture of fresh tomatoes and cilantro makes my mouth dry up like a desert.
It feels slightly like cheating to post a recipe of something I didn’t eat and, really, wouldn’t eat. But it was consumed in my presence—and I’ll take that as a win and justification.
My sister and I made this salsa to go with fish tacos. Everyone loved them. Aaron liked the addition of avocado to the salsa because it turned it into a cross between salsa and guacamole. It was also incredibly fresh. After all, we picked most of the tomatoes from my sister’s garden.
- 1 cup chopped seeded tomato
- 1/2 cup seeded yellow or orange tomato
- 1/2 cup avocado, cut into chunks
- 1/4 finely chopped red onion
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon jalapeno pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Combine the above ingredients in a small bowl. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour.
