  • 1/4 cup red bell pepper diced
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives pitted and chopped

  • 1 tbsp fresh mint or parsley chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the Avocados: Scoop out a bit of the avocado flesh to create a larger cavity for stuffing. Dice the scooped-out avocado and set aside.
