1/2 cup black beans, rinsed and drained

1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

Juice of 1 lime

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: Crumbled feta cheese for topping

Instructions

Prepare the Avocados: Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pit. Scoop out a little bit of the flesh if you want more room for the filling. Set the avocado shells aside.

Make the Filling: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, corn, red onion, black beans, and chopped cilantro.

Add Seasoning: Squeeze the juice of one lime over the mixture and season with salt and pepper to taste. Gently toss everything together until well combined.

Assemble the Boats: Spoon the filling generously into each avocado half, pressing down slightly to ensure they’re well packed.

Optional Toppings: If desired, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over the stuffed avocados and add slices of jalapeños for extra heat.

Serve: Arrange the avocado boats on a plate, and garnish with additional cilantro or lime wedges if desired. Enjoy immediately for the freshest flavor!
