Ingredients

  • 2 avocados, pulp scooped out
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 12 ounces chunky salsa
  • 8 ounces sour cream
  • 2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded
  • 1/3 cup black olives, sliced
  • 3 scallions, trimmed and chopped
  • 1 cup fresh tomato, chopped (I use Romas)

Method

  • Pour the lemon juice into a bowl and mash up the avocado pulp into it.
  • Spread this in the bottom of a 7x11-inch casserole dish.
  • Drain the salsa in a colander and then mix it with the sour cream. Spread this over the avocado layer.
  • Sprinkle the top with the tomatoes, cheese, scallions and olives.
  • Refrigerate for up to a day in advance (covered with cling wrap) and serve cold with tortilla chips.
