BAKED STUFFED AVOCADOS
Recently a restaurant close to us came out with a stuffed avocado. Of course theirs is stuffed with Sweet Barbacoa Pork which is fabulous but I don’t always have the time to make it at home. A much simpler and easy alternate to that is to stuff an avocado with taco meat.
A little enchilada sauce on top goes a long way and gives it so much flavor. It’s all about the toppings! I like mine with sour cream, pico de gallo or salsa, and some Cojita cheese. It would also be great with this Creamy Tomatillo Dressing.
