Portobello Mushrooms with Avocado Pesto

 avocado-recipes

Ingredients (3 servings)  
 
2 cups baby kale leaves 
 
1-2 tbsp. pine nuts, lightly toasted 
 
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 
 
3 cloves garlic 
 
4 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided 
 
1 pinch coarse salt 
 
1 avocado 
 
 1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco / fresh cheese
 
Salt and pepper 
 
 
Directions:  
 
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Meanwhile, rub a tablespoon of olive oil onto the mushroom caps and place them cap side down on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast for a good 15 minutes until soft. 
 
While the mushrooms are in the oven, put the kale, pine nuts, cheese, garlic, and a pinch of salt in a food processor, adding three tablespoons of olive oil until the texture takes on a pesto-like consistency. 
 
Mash up the avocado until smooth, adding it to the pesto mix. Stir well and spoon the pesto and guacamole sauce into each roasted cap, topping it with some queso fresco cheese.
