Guacamole-Goat Cheese Toasts
- 2 ripe avocados
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion, divided
- 1/2 medium-size jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 garlic clove, pressed
- 2 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
- 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
- 1 fresh tomatillo, husk removed
- 1 (7-oz.) package miniature white pita rounds*
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 plum tomato, seeded and finely chopped
- Cut avocados in half. Scoop pulp into a bowl, and mash with a potato masher or fork until slightly chunky. Stir in 2 Tbsp. red onion and next 5 ingredients. Gently fold in cheese. Place plastic wrap directly on surface of mixture, and let stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375u0b0. Finely chop tomatillo.
- Separate pita rounds lengthwise into two halves. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet; drizzle with olive oil.
- Bake at 375u0b0 for 6 to 8 minutes or until toasted. Top each with 1 rounded teaspoonful avocado mixture. Stir together tomatillo, tomato, and remaining 1 Tbsp. red onion. Top avocado mixture with tomatillo mixture. Sprinkle with coarsely ground pepper to taste.
- *1 (5-oz.) French bread baguette may be substituted for pita rounds. Cut bread diagonally into 42 (1/2-inch-thick) slices, discarding ends.
