Spicy Sesame Avocado Salsa

Avocado mixed with sesame oil, soy sauce, lime juice, ginger, cilantro, and hot sauce. This simple to make yet delicious spicy sesame avocado salsa goes well with chips, crackers, and bread for an afternoon snack.

Hi! This is Andrea from Cooking with a Wallflower, and this month I’m back with a brand new recipe perfect for an after school or a game day snack.

To be honest, I’m not the biggest sports fan. But my dad and my boyfriend both are. Which means that Sundays are generally spent watching football games in the fall. For me though? It’s less about the game and more about the food and snacks.

And one of the things I’m obsessed with is chips and dips. There’s something about savory and crunchy snacks that just does it for me. Classic chips with guacamole or salsa or ranch dip are some of my favorites. But I thought I would change it up a little bit with an Asian twist.

This spicy sesame avocado salsa is so delicious, perfect for pairing with your favorite tortilla chips, pita chips, crackers, or even toast. It takes just a few minutes to make so you can easily serve it for a late afternoon snack or make a bigger batch to serve the family for Sunday game days.

I love that there is a hint of sesame and lime and spiciness. It gives this dip so much flavor and so much depth. But at the same time, it’s so simple to make with ingredients that you probably already have in your fridge and pantry.

In a medium sized bowl, mix together soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, lime juice, and hot sauce. Add chopped avocado and chopped cilantro into the sauce and mix until combined.

Top the spicy sesame avocado salsa with more hot sauce and toasted sesame seeds.

Serve the spicy sesame avocado salsa with chips, crackers, or toasted bread.

Enjoy!
