Notes

  • Use ripe avocados for the best creamy texture.
  • Adjust spice level by adding more or less chili according to your preference.

  • Replace shrimp with tofu or tempeh for a vegan version.
  • Store leftovers separately in airtight containers; add avocado slices just before serving to prevent browning.
