Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Slice the avocados in half lengthwise and carefully remove the pits.
Use a spoon to gently scoop the avocado halves out of their skins, keeping them intact, and place them cut side up on a serving plate.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Drizzle the balsamic dressing evenly over the avocado halves.
Optionally, finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the avocados for a touch of color and flavor.
Serve immediately as an appetizer, light snack, or side dish.
