"Scrummy" Avocado

Living in fabulous "Bay of Plenty" in New Zealand, we get heaps of cheap avocado. I mash them with sweet chilli sauce and lime juice, and either eat them or freeze them. Scrummy! In the shops now, you can buy a commercial version of this, but its more expensive.

Chicken tenders
Tortilla wrappers
baby spinach leaves
avocado slices
salsa
ranch dressing

Prepare your chicken tenders however you like them. I like to saute mine in a bit of chicken broth in a non-stick pan and season with salt and pepper. You can also use the breaded prepared ones that you bake or fry if you want to.

Combine salsa and ranch dressing in a small bowl, using equal amounts of each.

When tenders are cooked, place on a tortilla wrapper, add avocado slices and baby spinach leaves and roll, tucking in both ends. Cut each prepared and rolled tortilla in half, on the diagonal.

Serve with a little bowl of salsa ranch dipping sauce.

Amazingly tasty!

Our favorite way to eat avacadoes is just slice and use them to top Ritz crackers...Go great with a large tossed salad. If they are too ripe to slice, just mash them and use as a spread. I refrigerate them if they become ripe before I am ready to use them, and they will keep a little longer, but have never tried freezing.
