Shopping List

• 4 avocados, ripe
• 1 lime, juiced
• 1 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 lb. ground beef
• 2 tsp. cumin
• ½ cup jalapenos, chopped

• ½ cup lettuce, shredded
• ½ cup cherry tomatoes, sliced
• ½ cup black olives, sliced

Instructions

1. Halve and pit avocados. Using a spoon, scoop out a bit of avocado to create a larger well. Set avocado aside to use later.
2. Squeeze lime juice over all halved avocados (to prevent browning).
3. In a medium skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions, jalapeños and cook about 6 minutes until tender.
4. Add ground beef and cumin. Season with salt and pepper, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon. Cook until the beef is no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and drain fat.
5. Add Abby J’s Roasted Garlic Salsa and mix well. Fill each avocado with beef mixture, then top with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and olives. Garnish with cilantro and a dollop of sour cream.
