Instructions
Creating your Caprese Avocado Boats is a straightforward process. Just follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Avocados: Cut the avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the pit carefully. You can scoop out a little extra flesh if you want to make more room for the filling.
2. Mix the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella balls, and chopped basil. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Mix gently to combine.
3. Fill the Avocados: Spoon the tomato and mozzarella mixture into the hollowed-out halves of the avocados. Fill generously to ensure every bite is bursting with flavor.
4. Drizzle with Balsamic Glaze: Finish each avocado with a drizzle of balsamic glaze for a sweet and tangy touch.
5. Garnish: Optionally, add a few extra basil leaves on top for garnish and additional flavor.
6. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Caprese Avocado Boats fresh for the best taste and texture.
