January 9, 2013





Roasted avocado goes in and it's time to mash away.


A very thick guac.
This sandwich is filling and satisfying.



Roasted Avocado and Black Bean Arepas
- 3 Avocados
- 2 Habaneros
- 2 Cloves Garlic
- 1 Can Black beans (drained and rinsed)
- 1 Cup Jack Cheese
- 1 Lime
- Harina PAN or other brand of arepa flour (par-cooked cornmeal)
Instructions
- Mix the arepa flour with salt and water according to package instructions. Form flat patties and cook dry on a flat grill or frying pan until browned on both sides, about 15 minutes.
- Toss the avocado in juice from the lime and salt. Place on a lightly oiled roasting sheet and cook at 325 for about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and add to a bowl with the beans, cheese, grated garlic, and diced habaneros. Mash with a potato masher until it's smooth but still has texture. Stuff the mixture into an arepa and eat!
