Avocado Feta Salsa

Avocado Feta Salsa

Ingredients:

2 plum tomatoes, chopped

2 ripe avocados - peeled, pitted and chopped

¼ cup finely chopped red onion

1 clove garlic, minced

⅓ cup chopped cilantro

1 tablespoon red vinegar

4 ounces crumbled feta cheese

lime

salt and pepper to taste


Directions:

In a bowl, gently stir together tomatoes, avocados, onion, and garlic. I also squirted some lime juice on it to give it more flavor and to keep the avocados from browning as quickly. Mix in cilantro. Gently stir in olive oil and vinegar. Then stir in feta. Salt and pepper to taste. Cover, and chill for at least an hour.

Bloomin Onion Bread

Bloomin Onion Bread

Ingredients:

1 loaf sourdough bread

12-16 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, thinly sliced

1/2 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup finely diced green onion

2 teaspoons poppy seeds


Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cut the bread lengthwise and widthwise without cutting through the bottom crust. This can be a little tricky going the second way but the bread is very forgiving.

Place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Insert cheese slices between cuts. Combine butter, onion, and poppy seeds. Drizzle over bread. Wrap in foil; place on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.

Unwrap the bread and bake 10 more minutes, or until cheese is melted.
