These thinly sliced avocados are simply dressed and quick and easy to pull together. They're a perfect side dish for breakfast, brunch, or dinner!

Ingredients


  • 2-3 large avocados
  • 1-2 lemons
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • kosher or sea salt
  • black pepper
  • 1 handful fresh chives
  • 1 medium tomato

Instructions


  • Cut each avocado in half and remove pits.
  • Using a large spoon, carefully scoop out entire avocado half, keeping it in tact.
  • Place center/pit-side down on a cutting board and use a large knife to slice into 1/8-1/4" slices. Carefully using knife, transfer sliced avocado to a serving plate or platter and use your hands to gently fan out the avocados accordion style. Repeat until all avocados are arranged on platter.
  • Cut tomato in half and remove seeds, pulp and inner membrane. Dice tomato in extra small pieces and set aside.
  • Use clean scissors to snip chives into small pieces until you have about 2 tablespoons or enough for your liking.
  • Drizzle some olive oil over each avocado half, followed by a squeeze of lemon juice. Tip: Squeeze lemon over open palm of opposite hand, letting juice run through and using fingers to catch loose seeds.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper, chives, and tomatoes.
  • Lastly, cut up some remaining lemon into slices or wedges and add to plate.
