About This Recipe

A guacamole and tomatillo salsa verde hybrid with fresh peppers, herbs and spices, lime juice, and pepitas.

Ingredients

• 2 medium Avocados (halved)
• 6 Tomatillos (quartered)
• 2 Jalapeño Peppers (seeds and membranes removed)
• 2 Serrano Peppers (seeds and membranes removed)
• 1-2 Garlic Cloves (peeled)
• 2 Scallions (greens only)
• 1-2 handfuls Cilantro
• Juice of 2 small Limes
• 2 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
• 1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cumin
• 1/2 cup 60g Pepitas, divided

Instructions

1. Add everything but 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds (for garnish) to a food processor and blend on low to medium speed for 3-5 minutes until you reach your desired consistency. Avoid blending on high speeds or you will whip too much air into the salsa.
2. Salt to taste and serve with the reserved pepitas. (See notes for additional garnishing ideas.)
