Ingredients

• 1 avocado
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
• 1/4 cup finely chopped tomato
• 1 jalapeno, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon minced cilantro
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice (from about 1 lime)
• Salt and pepper
• 1/4 cup pepper jack or cotija cheese, shredded or crumbled
• Hot sauce, for serving

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees and position a rack in the center.
• Cut an avocado in half and remove the pit.
• In a small bowl, combine the onion, tomato, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Season the avocado halves with salt and pepper. Divide the onion-tomato mixture between the avocado halves. Sprinkle the cheese on top.
• Crinkle two small pieces of foil and place them on a small baking sheet. These will help secure the avocado halves and keep them from rolling around.
• Place the avocado halves on the foil holders and place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake until the cheese has melted and the avocado is warm throughout, about 8-12 minutes.
