Baked Avocado Fries

Crispy oven-baked avocado fries with cilantro lime dipping sauce!  

It’s football season! Woot woot! I’m more than a little excited. And only half of my excitement is for cheering on my Cougars. The other half is for the food.

No doubt some of my favorite foods are the finger-eating kind. To a fault actually. I usually fill up on appetizers before the main course ever comes around. I think part of my preference for appetizers is due to my dipping-obsession. I’m a firm believer that everything is better smothered in sauce.

These avocado fries are no exception. I mean yeah, you could eat them plain, which I’ve actually done and quite enjoyed, but if you have two minutes (and you do, you really do) then you should whip up that really yummy cilantro lime dipping sauce you see above. It’s to-die-for good and cilantro-lime goes perfectly with avocado (hence the popularity of guacamole). And the fries themselves are so easy to make and crazy delicious! Bonus: they’re pretty healthy since you’re baking them instead of deep frying. You won’t miss all of that oil, promise!

What people are saying about these Baked Avocado Fries

“I made these with avocado from a bountiful basket. I was pleasantly surprised with the rough crispy texture. I’m still not a big fan of avocado but this gave the flavor with none of the softness as. Crunchy and salty and the dipping sauce is a must!” – Lea
