A nearby Mexican restaurant to me makes the most delicious avocado sauce, and OH MY GOODNESS… they told me exactly how to make it. It’s so exciting when great recipes get shared, don’t you think!
Avocado season is May thru October, I really prefer the flavor and texture, but all year avocados are available from different regions.
This Avocado Sauce is so delicious you will want to slather it on chips, tacos, and so even on top salads, and really great on this taco salad it’s also great for a veggie dip.
This sauce is great on
- Taco Salad
- Taco Marinated Chicken
- Easy Beef Empanadas
- Shrimp Tacos
- A nice accompaniment to chips and salsa, and green salsa.
- Instant Pot Shredded pork
- Black Bean Soup
