Quick and Creamy Avocado Spread Recipe | Perfect for Dips & Sandwiches
Indulge in the goodness of this quick and creamy avocado spread recipe. This insane avocado spread is incredibly creamy and bursting with flavor. Start by cutting the avocado in half, removing the pit, and scoring the flesh with the tip of a knife. Scoop out the avocado flesh and add it to a food processor. Peel the garlic, cut it in half, and remove the core for better digestion. Slice the garlic into the food processor along with tahini, freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Process the ingredients until you reach your desired texture, pausing to scrape down the sides if necessary. Taste and adjust for salt. Transfer the avocado spread into a bowl and top it with fresh parsley or cilantro, sesame seeds, and a pinch of sumac. This versatile spread can be served as a dip or spread on toasted bread with crispy chickpeas or freshly chopped tomatoes. For storing leftovers, flatten the avocado spread in the bowl, cover it with a thin layer of lemon juice, and then with plastic wrap touching the avocado to prevent browning. Store it in the fridge for a couple of days. Enjoy the easy preparation and irresistibly creamy texture!
