My son loves Avocados. In the middle he went through this unbelievable avocado phase where all he wanted was avocados for breakfast, lunch and dinner. So in addition to layering fresh avocado slices between tortillas and cheese or making grilled cheese and avocado sandwiches I came up with this guacamole like salad for him. He loved it and would tell me in the morning before going to preschool that "mommy make abocado salad for me when I get home".
Now the avocados, tomatoes, onions, lime juice and cilantro tasted just fine, but it lacked something texturally, something crunchy like the tortilla chips. As there was none at home I had to improvise and that is when I spotted a big box (Costco size) of Cheez-It ( mini cheese crackers) on the top of my fridge. All I can say is that it was a match made in kiddie-heaven (and adult heaven too ! ). Sprinkle some of the Cheez-it over your salad and have a fork ready at your side and you are good to go. If making for an adult you can also add minced green chilies.
