Potato with Avocado and Parsley Sauce
Today I had a lovely snack. I had baked potato and Avocado and parsley sauce.
I microwaved the potatoes. That is the easiest for me, and if I cook them a bit longer they can end up crispy, which I love.
When I cook potatoes in the microwave, I always cook a number of them , because then I can use them as a snack through the day. It is also easy to pick up a potato if I am running around.
Sometimes, I have the potatoes there and they become the base of my next supper.
Last night I was not sure what to prepare. My daughter, who is a picky eater, asked for pasta, and she chose the pasta type. I added vegetables to the pasta and instead of serving it with tomato I tried this avocado and parsley sauce that I saw it in Cooking with Plants.
Well It was delicious. My daughter had plain pasta with tomato sauce (ketchup), so did my son, because he tried the sauce and I think it had to much parsley for his taste.
But I loved it. I mixed it in my pasta. My pasta was warm but not hot. and it was delicious.
This is what is left from that pasta.
But I had sauce left, so today I had that snack potatoes with the avocado and parsley sauce. And it was delicious.
Now I made a couple of changes to the recipe.
I did not have sunflower seeds, so I used sesame seeds. Not sure if it worked as it was supposed to, but it was not too thick nor too thin. I could have also used cashew nuts, but I did not have any. Today actually is thicker than last night.
I used whatever I had of parsley, and I think it was enough.
So that was my supper last night and my snack today
Certainly it is a wonderful recipe.
I would add fried fine minced onion, a mayonnaisse tablespoon and my favorite ingredient: a pinch of Lawry’s garlic and parsley salt(NOT the one with oregano and basil)
Thank you for your suggestions.
