  • 1 teaspoon Salt To taste
For the Roasted Portobellos
  • 4 large Portobello Mushrooms Fresh
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Aminos Can substitute soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Avocado Oil Can substitute olive oil
For the Salsa Cremosa
  • 2 cups Red Tomatoes Ripe
  • 1 medium Onion Yellow or white as alternatives
  • 2 cloves Garlic Clove Omit if garlic-free is needed

Equipment

  • oven
  • Baking Sheet
  • Food Processor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Slice the ripe avocados and mash them in a bowl with fresh lime juice, hot sauce, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Shape the mixture into skulls using a mold and freeze them for a spooky garnish.
  2. Preheat your oven to 435°F. Grease a baking sheet and arrange the portobello mushrooms stem side up. Spread the red tomatoes, onion, and garlic on the other side. Bake everything for about 30 minutes until the mushrooms are browned and the veggies are nicely charred.
  3. After the roasted veggies have cooled, blend them in a food processor until smooth. If necessary, adjust the salsa's consistency with a little water or oil for the perfect creamy texture.
  4. Place the roasted portobellos on serving plates, then spoon the delicious salsa into the center of each mushroom. Top them off with the frozen guacamole skulls, and serve at room temperature for maximum flavor.
