Creamy Avocado Salsa Recipe
Report
Mild Mexican taquería style creamy avocado salsa which reminds me of the salsa that they serve with tostadas at La Siberia in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon. heavy Mexican cream cuts the burn from the serrano chile and softens the flavor. Tomatillos give it a pleasant tang. An easy to make kid-friendly salsa!

- Add some lime juice if you want to keep the salsa from turning brown, but it's best to cover it tightly with plastic wrap when you refrigerate it.
- This salsa is mildly spicy. If you prefer a hotter salsa add 1 more serrano chile.
- You can substitute jalapeño pepper for the serrano.
- Sour cream works just as well as Mexican cream.
