RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

» For making Avocado Cheese Spread

1. Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pits. Peel the garlic cloves and slice lemon.
2. Scoop the avocado flesh into a blender. Also, add the garlic cloves to the blender. Sprinkle salt and pepper into the blender, adjusting to your preferred level of seasoning. Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon into the blender. Next, add the cream cheese. Blend the ingredients until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure everything is well combined.
3. Transfer the spread into a serving dish and spread it evenly. Sprinkle with some red pepper flakes. For serving, spread the blended avocado cheese mixture onto the bread slices or buns. Enjoy them like this, or slice the additional avocado for serving. Place slices of fresh avocado on top of the spread for an extra creamy and chunky texture. Sprinkle red pepper flakes over the avocado cheese spread for a hint of heat and added color. Add a few drops of lemon juice. Serve the blender avocado cheese spread sandwiches immediately, and enjoy a quick and flavorful snack or meal!

RECIPE NOTES

1. For making this spread, you need to use ripe avocados for that creamy texture. So choose the avocados that are ripe, uniform, and have a blackish green color. Press them with the thumb and they should feel slightly soft. But make sure that you do not use the avocados that are overripe or too brown.
2. It is one of the main ingredients of this recipe, so opt for high-quality cream cheese. If possible, use softened full-fat cream cheese for the best taste and creaminess. However, if you don't prefer full-fat cheese then you can also use low-fat cream cheese.
