Paleo roasted avocado with salsa and breadcrumbs

Paleo Baked Avocado with Salsa and Breadcrumbs

All I can say is Yum Yum Yum! This was such a quick and super delicious meal. I added some leftover cauliflower rice as a side and had a great wholesome dinner! 


Baked Avocado Salsa

Ingredients:

-1 ripe Avocado
-¼ cup bread crumbs*
-1 garlic clove, minced
-1 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese (I did not use cheese)
-1 Tbsp. basil, chopped
-1 Tbsp. lemon juice
-Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
-¼ cups
Roasted Garlic Tomato Salsa (I used bruschetta)

Directions:

-Preheat oven to 450°F.
-In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs, garlic, cheese, basil, lemon juice, salt and pepper; set aside.
-Cut the avocado in half and remove pit. Divide the salsa between the two avocado halves.  Top with bread crumb mixture.
-Place on a small baking sheet.
-Bake for 5-10 minutes. Serve immediately.

Paleo Breadcrumbs


-½ cup Almond Meal or Almond Flour
-¼ cup Golden Flaxseed Meal
-1 tsp Garlic Powder*
-½ tsp Onion Powder*
-½ tsp Thyme*
-½ tsp Oregano*
-1 ¼ tsp Sea Salt*
-½ tsp Black Pepper*
-Optional: 1 Tbsp Arrowroot Powder (if you need to thicken a dish)

*You can use 4 tsps Italian Seasoning instead of these.

NOTE: You can use regular flaxseed meal if you want, but it will taste more like wheat bread.

Mix all ingredients together and use just like breadcrumbs.

(Makes a little over 2 cups of breadcumbs)
