Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Baguette (or any crusty bread)
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 pieces Ripe avocados
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.25 cup Red onion (finely chopped)
- 1 piece Jalapeño (deseeded and finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes (quartered)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt (for salsa)
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper (for salsa)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the baguette into long, thin strips about 1/2 inch wide.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, ground cumin, and salt.
Brush each bread strip generously with the seasoned olive oil mixture.
Lay the bread strips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. Remove from oven and let them cool.
While the bread strips are baking, prepare the avocado salsa. Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl. Mash the avocado lightly with a fork, leaving some chunks for texture.
Add lime juice, finely chopped red onion, jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and cherry tomatoes to the mashed avocado. Mix gently to combine.
Season the avocado salsa with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the warm salsa bread strips alongside the fresh avocado salsa in a dipping bowl. Enjoy your crunchy, flavorful snack!
