Guacamole Potato Bites

Pace® Salsa Verde
3 Russet Potatoes
2 Tablespoons Butter, Melted
Salt, To Taste
2 Cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese
2 Avocados, Mashed
1 Tablespoon Jalapeno Peppers, Diced
1 Tomato, Diced
1/4 Cup Cilantro, Chopped
1/4 Cup Green Onion, Diced
1/8 Cup Sour Cream

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash and dry your potatoes, and cut into rounds approximately 1/2 inch thick.
Brush both sides of potato rounds with melted butter and sprinkle with salt. Bake in oven for approximately 25 minutes, until fork tender. Flip halfway through cooking to evenly brown both sides.
Meanwhile, combine mashed avocados with jalapeno peppers. Set aside.
Remove potatoes from oven, top with cheese, and place back in oven to melt the cheese.
Remove from oven and top with your avocado mixture, tomato, cilantro, green onion, sour cream and Pace® Salsa Verde.
Enjoy warm.

These turned out AMAZING. I love the combination of potato, avocado and sour cream, as well as the genuine southwest flavor the Pace® Salsa Verde brings to the mix.

Want to add a DIY element to this recipe? Just bake the potatoes and set out the rest of the ingredients for a DIY Potato Bites Bar! Set out small bowls of all the ingredients so your guests can mix and match their favorites.

As I mentioned earlier, I found my 24 oz. Pace® Chunky Salsa Medium, as well as the rest of my ingredients, at Walmart. Pick some up on your next trip!
