So, this avocado and scallion salsa is anything, but ordinary! It has the perfect combination of flavors and leaves you wanting more! I a gobbled it up in 5 minutes. My son, Luke, recently started becoming an avocado fan and he loved it! This would be perfect to serve on top of some flatbread as an appetizer or even on top of a piece of white fish to flavor it up. It takes 5 minutes to make, as well! So, as long as you have 10 minutes to spare, you've got yourself a nice healthy meal! This salsa would even be perfect for an afternoon snack 🙂

How do you make avocado and scallion salsa?

Well if this wasn't the easiest recipe to make then I don't know what is?! In a small mixing bowl, toss in all ingredients and mix until well combined!

Benefits of Avocados!

Okay, so I'm sure you've heard how great avocados are for your diet and that you should be adding them in. If you've tried an avocado, but it just isn't for you, then I suggest giving this recipe a try. It really gives the avocado all the right flavors and will most likely leave you a fan!
