It’s time for my first Recipe Redux Recipe Challenge!! The California Avocado Commission is the sponsor this month.
This month, the Recipe Redux is challenging members to create the perfect summer get-together dish using California Avocados. This delicious green fruit is in peak season from March through September, so it is an ideal fresh seasonal ingredient to add to the dish you are bringing to your next backyard barbecue, pool party or upcoming Labor Day picnic.

Disclosure: By posting this recipe I am entering a recipe contest sponsored by the California Avocado Commission and am eligible to win prizes associated with the contest. I was not compensated for my time.

I have a few avocado recipes up my sleeve to submit for the recipe contest. I decided to start with an appetizer.

  1. These sound delicious and are very cute looking appetizers! And ditto to Deanna and Regan’s question regarding the nutrition facts panel. Think we’d all love to have assess to that!

  2. Hi Julie! It’s so nice to meet another RD-to-be! I’m starting my 10 mo. internship in 2 weeks and have one more semester in my graduate program after that..so I’ll be done around next year. And yes, study like crazy for the RD exam ;). Good luck with everything!
    I love baking wonton wrappers as well…filled with avocado, cream cheese, and salmon? even better!
