Expert Tips

• To dice avocado, cut in half, and remove pit. Using large spoon, scoop flesh from skin. Place one half avocado cut side down on cutting board. Make two horizontal cuts to make three planks, then cut lengthwise into strips. Turn 90°, and cut again. Repeat with other half of avocado.
• Want more spice? Add 1 additional teaspoon finely chopped serrano chile.
• Cooking Gluten Free? Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.
