GRILLED AVOCADOS

Steps:

• Quarter 6 firm avocados; season with salt and pepper and brush with grapeseed oil. Grill over medium-high heat, turning, until marked all over, about 3 minutes.
• Combine 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/4 cup fresh parsley, 3 garlic cloves (crushed and quartered), 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a blender. With the blender running, add 6 tablespoons olive oil and puree until smooth.
• Drizzle the dressing over the avocados and garnish with more parsley.

PICKLED AVOCADOS

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, salt, sugar, coriander seeds, cumin seeds and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the salt and sugar. Remove the pan from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• Halve, pit and peel the avocados, then cut them into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place the avocado slices in a wide-mouth pint-size glass jar along with the cilantro sprigs, garlic, jalapeno and lime zest. Pour the cooled brine into the jar and cover. Gently turn the jar upside down and rotate to mix the aromatics, avocado and brine evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. (The pickled avocado slices will keep, tightly sealed in the refrigerator, for up to 1 week.)

MARKET ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Spread the potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, parsnips, and red onions out on a heavy, rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil, salt, and pepper, and toss to coat evenly. Roast in the oven for 50 minutes, flipping with a spatula half way through the cooking. Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with butter, and sprinkle with parsley and flaky sea salt.

INSIDE OUT STUFFED AVOCADOS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Using the tip of a paring knife, cut off a sliver of the skin from the rounded side of each avocado half, so they will lay flat on your serving platter. Score the flesh side of each avocado half in a cross-hatch pattern. Brush the inside of the avocado halves with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the avocado halves cut-side down on the grill for 1 minute 30 seconds. Turn the avocado halves 90 degrees to get cross-hatch grill marks and cook for another 1 minute 30 seconds. Remove from the grill and place, grilled-side up, on a large platter.
• Stir together the tomatoes, garlic, jalapeno, onion, cilantro, vinegar, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Set aside for assembly.
• Whisk together the sour cream, agave, lime juice and hot sauce in a small mixing bowl to form the crema.
• Mound about 2 heaping tablespoons of the vegetable mixture into each avocado half. Drizzle the margarita crema over the avocados. Sprinkle the tortilla chips on top. Serve immediately.

CHILI LIME AVOCADOS

Steps:

• Halve avocados and remove pit. Roll limes or heat in microwave for 10 seconds to get juices flowing. Halve the limes. Rub the avocado halves gently with 1/2 lime to retard the browning. Juice limes into small bowl and mix with sugar, chili powder and salt using a fork or small whisk. Add extra-virgin olive oil in a slow stream while mixing dressing. Pour dressing into the cavities of avocados, distributing it equally and serve. Garnish with chives or cilantro as an optional garnish.
