Cranberry-Avocado Salsa
- Serves 4
- Prep time: 20 minutes
- Total time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 minced jalapeño
- 1/4 cup red onion, chopped
- 2 ripe avocados, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
- 3/4 cup halved cranberries
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- coarse salt and ground pepper
- Pita Crisps or tortilla chips
Directions
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 minced jalapeño (seeds removed for less heat, if desired), and 1/4 cup chopped red onion.
- Add 2 ripe avocados, cut into 1/4-inch pieces, 3/4 cup halved cranberries, drained well on paper towels, and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro. Season with coarse salt and ground pepper; toss gently to combine. Serve with Pita Crisps or tortilla chips, as desired.
Note: Skip halving the cranberries. Simmer cranberries with about a quarter cup water and 2 or 3 tablespoons of sugar to sweeten them. Raw cranberries are a little too bitter.
