Parmesan Cones with Avocado and Red Pepper Recipe
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup grated cheddar
1/4 cup grated Asiago
1/4 avocado, peeled, pitted and diced into 1/4″ cubes
1/2 red pepper, seeds and stem removed, diced into 1/4″ cubes
1/4 cup corn
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 tsp lemon juice
Salt
Pepper
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.
Mix the cheese together. Pour a heaping tablespoon of the mixture onto a silicone or parchment lined baking sheet and lightly pat down. Repeat with the remaining cheese, leaving at least an inch between piles. Bake for 3 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Allow to cool for one minute, then wrap the cheese around cone molds like these [or, reader Donna recommends shaping them using a peeled carrot!], or press into mini muffin tins for tuile shapes. Allow to cool until hardened.
Mix together the avocado, red pepper, corn, olive oil, lemon juice, and additional salt and pepper. Mix lightly so the avocado doesn’t bruise. Fill the cones with the mixture and serve!
Makes about a dozen.
