Cooking Tip

You’ll only be using half an avocado in this recipe, so store the remainder for another recipe or for cutting up over a salad. To avoid discoloration, place the avocado half in a container with some chopped onion, and tightly seal the container.

Simply leave out the honey to make this recipe vegan.
