Tomato-Stuffed Avocados

We both think that this might be our most favorite summer salad.  Oh my goodness, it is so good!!

It's perfect as a salad or a side dish for just about any meal.  This was another of the dishes that we made for Mother's Day and, as usual, there were no leftovers.



Tomato-Stuffed Avocados

Ingredients:

2 plum/Roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
3/4 thinly sliced red onion
1 t. fresh basil leaves, chopped
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. pepper
2 medium, ripe avocados, halved and pitted
2 t. lime juice

Directions:

In a large bowl, gently toss tomatoes, onion, basil, salt and pepper.  Spoon into avocado halves; drizzle with lime juice.  Serve immediately.

*Actually, the tomato, onion, basil mixture is good enough to eat on it's own.  That is if you don't mind onion breath.  If you do, well, pretend you don't and enjoy anyway!

Let us know what you think, onion breath and all!
