A nearby Mexican restaurant to me makes the most delicious avocado sauce, and OH MY GOODNESS… they told me exactly how to make it. It’s so exciting when great recipes get shared, don’t you think!

Avocado season is May thru October, I really prefer the flavor and texture, but all year avocados are available from different regions.

This Avocado Sauce is so delicious you will want to slather it on chips, tacos, and so even on top salads, and really great on this taco salad it’s also great for a veggie dip.

This sauce is great on

Taco Salad
Taco Marinated Chicken
Easy Beef Empanadas
Shrimp Tacos
A nice accompaniment to chips and salsa, and green salsa.
Instant Pot Shredded pork
Black Bean Soup

This is perfect for someone like me who like to snack in between meals!

Oh this looks wonderful!

Very unique and a great way to use up those avocados!

They just had avocados on sale 3/$1 so now I have 3 all ripe and ready to go. I will definitely be trying this. Thanks, Diane!

Well my hubby does the same too. Bought a lot and forgets about it. Thanks for sharing – I might try this recipe soon as I still have a few avocado in my fridge now.
