Author Notes: This recipe was inspired by a dinner I worked for a class requirement at The Natural Gourmet Institute. By using your hands to squeeze the ingredients together, the cabbage softens and it creates a tender, creamy slaw. You can put your own swerve on it by adding other ingredients, such as poppy seeds, chopped pickle, or shredded carrot. —MizChef

Ingredients
-
1
large ripe Haas avocado, diced
-
4
cups shredded cabbage
-
1
tablespoon lime juice
-
1 1/2
teaspoons kosher salt
-
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
-
8
(6-inch) corn tortillas
-
Olive oil for brushing
-
2
medium plum tomatoes, diced small
Directions
- 1. Combine the avocado, cabbage, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. With your hands, squeeze the ingredients together until cabbage has softened and ingredients are well combined. Taste for seasoning and adjust to your taste.
- 2. Using a 3-inch biscuit cutter, cut out 2 circles from each tortilla. Brush them lightly with olive oil and brown them on both sides on a grill or in a frying pan.
- 3. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the slaw onto each tortilla round and garnish with the tomato.
