This zesty avocado lime spread is a delightful twist on a classic dip, perfect for gatherings or as a snack.
Prepare the avocado by peeling, pitting, and cutting it into chunks.
Use a spoon to easily scoop out the avocado flesh after halving it.
Place the avocado chunks into a food processor.
Ensure the food processor is clean and dry for best results.
Add the lime juice, garlic, chili, cherry tomatoes, and cilantro to the food processor.
Adjust the amount of chili based on your spice preference.
Blend the mixture until smooth, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pause occasionally to scrape down the sides of the processor for an even blend.
Transfer the spread to a serving bowl and cover with plastic wrap pressed directly onto the surface.
This prevents air exposure and keeps the spread fresh.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Chilling enhances the flavor and texture of the spread.
Serve with your choice of tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks.
Garnish with a sprig of cilantro or a slice of lime for presentation.
