SO HOW'D IT GO?
I thought this was a little bland so I tossed in some pepperchinis and that did the trick ;)
I used all the ingredients listed in the recipe but instead of a plum tomato, I used half a large normal tomato and I added a pinch of salt. I put everything in the blender and then I had enough to put onto 5 medium sized pita breads. I did not like the taste, but it might just be me.
I actually used this recipe to come up w/an avocado spread for a sandwich i wanted to make. i used 2 avocados, a little bit of chopped onion, some diced garlic, a bit of sesame oil, a lot of lemon juice ( to keep it green), salt, pepper, spanish paprika (not much flavor there) all in a blender (to get it as smooth as possible... and for the record i despise my blender). it turned out alright but i'm sure there are things i could add/do to this to make it amazing. if you wanted to use it for a pita sandwich, i think adding black beans to the mixture would be wonderful.
