Mean Green Guacamole Salsa

This is a green salsa I learned while in Mexico. It is a green salsa with avocado and it is delicious! I always make it when we do carne asada. I am always begged for the recipe. Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 10 fresh tomatillos, husks removed
  • 2 fresh jalapeno peppers, stems removed
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, stems trimmed
  • 3 avocados, peeled and pitted
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • salt to taste

Directions

Step 1
Bring a pot of water to a boil and stir in tomatillos and jalapenos. Boil until tomatillos turn bright green and soft, about 10 minutes.

Step 2
Place cilantro, avocados, cooked tomatillos, and cooked jalapenos into a blender, working in batches if necessary. Blend until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add about 1 tablespoon of tomatillo cooking water, or as needed, if salsa is too thick.

Step 3
Stop the blender, and season the salsa with garlic powder and salt to taste. Blend again briefly to mix in the seasonings. Transfer to a bowl for serving.

Recipe Tips

Serve either warm or cold the next day. Add the avocado pits to the finished salsa to keep it from browning in the refrigerator.
