Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe avocados, halved and pitted
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • For the Veggie Ceviche:
  • 1 cup diced cucumber
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup diced bell pepper (any color)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
  • 1 jalapeño, finely minced (optional)
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the veggie ceviche: In a medium bowl, combine the diced cucumber, red onion, bell pepper, cilantro, lime juice, orange juice, and minced jalapeño (if using). Season with salt and mix well. Set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  3. Brush the cut side of each avocado half with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  4. Place the avocado halves, cut side down, on the preheated grill. Grill for 3-5 minutes, or until grill marks appear and the avocado is slightly softened.
  5. Carefully remove the grilled avocados from the grill.
  6. Spoon the veggie ceviche generously into the hollow of each grilled avocado half.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • For an extra kick, add a pinch of chili flakes to the ceviche.
  • You can prepare the veggie ceviche ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • If you don’t have a grill, you can sear the avocado halves in a hot pan for a similar effect.
