A few things with cilantro I've made before:
- Thai Basil Pesto
- Esquites (just made these last night!)
- Blackeyed Pea Posole with Collards (good, but good Lord it's way too hot for this right now)
- Tomato, Corn and Avocado Salad
- Enchiladas Verdes
- Salsa Verde
- Zesty Avocado Cilantro Dressing
Guacamole
Note: this is a starting point, adjust ingredients to your taste
1 large ripe avocado (like the ones in the bag at Costco) or 2 small (like the ones in the tiny bag at HT)
1 handful chopped ripe tomato
1 handful chopped onion
1 handful cilantro. chopped
juice from 1/2 lime
1 serrano or 1/2 jalepeño (if it's one of those monster ones!), finely chopped, or a few dashes of hot sauce such as Tapatio
salt and pepper to taste
Mash avocado in bowl w/ fork or potato masher. Add the rest of the ingrdients, stir, taste and adjust salt, pepper and hot sauce to your liking. Serve w/ tortilla chips on tacos or quesadillas, or, just go at it with a spoon.
Some pics!
