Ingredients:
3 large, ripe avocados
3 hardboiled eggs, chopped
1 cup minced ham or other meat, such as portk, chicken or fish
1 cup mayonnaise, or to taste
salt and pepper to taste
shredded dark leaf lettuce
Preparation:
Combine the ham, chopped hard-boiled eggs with enough mayonnaise to bind them. Chill until ready to use.
Just before serving, cut the avocados in half, remove the pit and peel. Place a half over shredded lettuce on six plates, sprinkle with lime or lemon juice to prevent discolation, and then add the filling to the avocado cup.
You can substitute cooked vegetables for the chopped eggs, or a vinaigrette for the mayonnaise.
Seafood salad is excellent with avocado.
Thanks for the question. I love avocados, but never heard of them stuffed before. Thanks to all the answers...I'll be copying them too!!
Ugh, you people eat too much mayonnaise. Disgusting. Yes, you can mix up a bunch of stuff with mayonnaise and stuff it in there, or you can make something that won't make you have a heart attack.
Grilled chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)- chop them up. If you don't have a grill (I use an indoor grill) you can broil them. They will be fairly thin so it won't take too long. Season the chicken with lime juice, cumin and garlic. Anyhow, once they've cooled, chop them loosely and put into a bowl with chopped spring onion, chopped fresh cilantro, tomatillo salsa (that would be the green sort if you're unfamiliar with it) and a few shreds of monterey jack cheese. Toss until it comes together, then stuff into the avocado shells. Sprinkle a little lime juice and a little freshly ground pepper over the top.
