Lime-Cado Bites
- 1 pound fresh mozzarella that can be sliced into shapes
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 avocado, mashed
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon chopped green chiles (mild)
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 rind grated of lime
- 2 cups panko bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon each of the following fresh chopped herbs- mint, flat leaf parsley, scallions, and chives
- salt and pepper to taste
- oil for skillet
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 1/2 mashed avocado
- 1 cup chopped English cucumber
- 1 tablespoon mild green chiles
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- salt and pepper to taste
- herbs for garnish
- Slice the mozzarella into bit size pieces. An inch square is a good size, or a bit larger.
- Mix the beaten egg with 1/2 c. yogurt, half an avocado, half the rind of a lime, green chiles, cumin, salt, and pepper in one bowl.
- In another bowl mix the panko crumbs with other half of the lime rind, the chopped fresh herbs, salt and pepper.
- Dip and coat the mozzarella morsels with the egg, yogurt, and avocado mixture.
- Next roll the coated morsels into the panko mixture, trying to retain a generous coat.
- Heat a good vegetable oil (grapeseed oil works well here) coating the entire bottom of a skillet.
- Add the coated morsels into the skillet, making sure you hear a definite sizzle upon contact. Quickly brown and serve.
- Serve with chopped cucumbers, mixed together with yogurt, mashed avocado, chopped fresh herbs, cumin, green chiles, salt, pepper, and fresh herb garnish.
