Tortillas with Avocado and Cumin Salt

I came up with this snack in bed this morning and ate a couple by 10:00 AM because I couldn’t wait to try. I’m going to use it as the base to Carne Asada tacos tonight but I think they’re Devine all by themselves. The best part- Cumin citrus salt 1 part sea salt 1 part Cumin 1/2 part chili pepper flakes 1/2 part or less lemon zest Toast or blister corn tortillas Add smashed avocado and feta cheese. Top with cumin citrus salt and a squeeze of lemon juice. I’m excited to add Carne Asada to them tonight (if there are any left).

Watermelon & Cucumber Guacamole

And finally, my third Cinco de Mayo recipe with watermelon and cucumber. (My personal favorite!) Avocado or premade guacamole Watermelon, chopped Cucumber, chopped Feta cheese Lime juice and zest Chili powder Kosher salt I Love my local grocery store’s deli-made guacamole so I started with that. Add watermelon and cucumber and mix. Top with feta cheese, lime zest, lime juice, chili powder, and salt. TIP *I don’t often post all the different recipes I try with the same ingredients but I do this a lot. If you have a lot of cucumber and watermelon for instance try totally different ways of using it. Don’t let extras go to waste or feel like you have to have the same leftovers 3 nights in a row. Make extra guacamole then put it over grilled chicken and brown rice the next night. I find it challenging and fun to come up with totally different uses for ingredients I have around the house.
