Avocado Crema

Ingredients:

• 1-2 ripe avocados
• 1 garlic clove
• ½ cup sour cream
• 1/2-1 teaspoon sea salt
• zest & juice of 2 limes
• ¼ cup loosely packed fresh cilantro
• 1/2-1 Serrano or jalapeño pepper, if you prefer a bit of heat.

A few notes on making this:

• This is incredibly quick and easy to make as a topping for tacos, or on its own as a dip for chips or veggies, since it can be made in your food processor.
• These ingredients are approximate— start with those amounts and add more or less to your taste.
• This is also forgiving to make if your avocado isn’t perfectly ripe. Ripe ones are best, but even if it’s a little under ripe, it will blend nicely as long as it’s not too hard.

Directions:

• Slice avocados lengthwise and remove pit and skin.
• Slice Serrano or jalapeño lengthwise and remove stem and seeds. (Leave a few seeds if you prefer more heat.)
• Add avocado, and Serrano or jalapeño if using, to a food processor or small blender, along with garlic, salt, lime juice, and cilantro, and blend until smooth.
• Taste and adjust for seasoning.
• Spoon over tacos and enjoy.
