These were impressive! What a great combination of flavors and textures and pretty too. I did add 2 Tbsp. of finely chopped red bell pepper for color and the 3 garlic cloves other raters suggested. I also used a mixture of roasted and salted cashews, brazil nuts and almonds for the nuts. Great trecipe mariposa13. I'll be making these many times and have already shared your recipe.

Avocado lovers' heaven: a truly wonderful blend of flavours. I added three cloves of minced garlic to the minced onion; sorry mariposa13 but as a garlic lover, I just couldn't resist. The instructions didn't specify chopping or mincing for the onion, so I opted for mincing. I used almonds and - though I never drink sherry - it was certainly fabulous in this dish. A great entree dish or a light meal dish. Thanks, mariposa13: I'll make this again.
