This avocado appetizer is bright and delicious! The addition of diced jalapeño pepper and Dijon mustard give it a kick. Note: I used stone ground Dijon mustard, which is really tasty and it gave the dish a bit more texture.
This isn’t an original recipe from Foodie Julie Iowa. I saw it on Food and Wine and just had to try it. It doesn’t disappoint!
