California Avocado Caprese Boats = my new favorite 10-minute appetizer 🥑🍅! It’s basically the perfect caprese salad x guac cross over and comes together quick. Grab some @ca_avocados – they’re ethically sourced, sustainably farmed and locally grown for some of the best quality and freshness out there. I’ve been picking mine up at @Sprouts, one of the fastest growing, fresh natural and organic retailers in the US. Just look for California on the label when getting your avocados. 📌 Save this post for your next summer gathering! #ad

🥑 CALIFORNIA AVOCADO CAPRESE BOATS RECIPE 🥑 

🛒 INGREDIENTS
• 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
• 1/2 cup mozzarella pearls
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp pesto
• 1 1/2 tbsp chopped fresh basil
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 large ripe, Fresh California Avocados
• 1 tbsp balsamic glaze
• Fresh basil, for garnish

📝 DIRECTIONS
1. Combine halved cherry tomatoes and mozzarella pearls in a large bowl.
2. Add in pesto, minced garlic, chopped basil, salt and pepper.
3. Mix to coat.
4. Halve the California Avocados and remove the seeds. Arrange on a serving plate — scoop a bit more flesh out to make bigger “boats” if you want.
5. Fill each avocado half generously with the caprese mixture, mounding slightly above the rim. 
6. Drizzle with balsamic glaze, garnish with extra basil, and finish with a touch of salt + pepper.

One of the most beautiful restaurants in Santa Barbara, and one of the most transportive!👇🏻

· Spanish and European-leaning menu with strong local sourcing
· happy hour Tue–Sat 4–5:30pm — oysters, margaritas, calamari, etc
· one of the best spots in SB for a special night out or a special date

Indonesian-inspired, locally sourced, and very creative — @samasamakitchen has been one of my all-time favorite restaurants for several years now — it delivers every time!!
