Zucchini Avocado And Jalapeño Tartine Recipes

ZUCCHINI, AVOCADO, AND JALAPEñO TARTINE

Steps:

• In a colander, toss zucchini ribbons with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Let stand until glossy and very pliable, about 10 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture and salt.
• Drizzle toasted bread with oil; season with flaky salt and pepper. Divide avocados evenly between toasts; lightly mash with a fork. Top evenly with zucchini ribbons, jalapeño, and cilantro. Drizzle with more oil, season with flaky salt and pepper, and finish with a squeeze of lime.

TOMATO, ZUCCHINI AND AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Sprinkle the zucchini with salt, and drain in a colander for 15 minutes. Rinse if the zucchini tastes very salty, and drain on paper towels.
• Combine the tomatoes, chiles and cilantro in an attractive bowl. Combine the zucchini, avocado and lemon or lime juice and olive oil in another bowl. Taste and add salt if desired. Add to the tomatoes, and toss together gently. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve on lettuce leaves as a salad, or serve over rice.
