GUACAMOLE WITH DRIED CILANTRO



GUACAMOLE WITH DRIED CILANTRO

This guacamole was rather nice.  I liked the addition of cilantro which was actually quite subtle.  I bought my dried cilantro in a big bottle from the equivalent of Costco.  You should be able to find it there.  Because of our humid climate, I keep it in the freezer.

3 California avocados
1 tbsp chopped green onion tops (15 mL)
2 tbsp mayonnaise (30 mL)
1 tbsp spreadable cream cheese, (15 mL)
  optional
11/tsp dried cilantro (7 mL)
1/tsp salt (2 mL)
1/tsp black pepper (1 mL)
1-2 tbsp chopped Roma tomato, for garnish

Cut the avocados in half, remove pits and peel.  Mash avocados and place in a bowl along with mayonnaise, cream cheese (if using), cilantro, salt and black pepper.  Combine well.  Garnish the top of the guacamole with chopped tomato.
