Ingredients

2 ripe Mexican avocados halved, pitted and peeled
1/2 cup pitted green olives chopped (preferably the cracked bitter ones)
3 scallions chopped
2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (she asked me to point out that she meant lemon and never lime)
Salt to taste
Ground black pepper to taste
2 hard boiled eggs peeled and chopped (optional)
1/2 cup Israeli or French feta cheese crumbled (optional)
Hot or toasted pita breads

To Prepare

In a mixing bowl, mash the avocados with a fork to a chunky paste. Add the olives, scallions, lemon juice, salt and pepper and mix well. Add chopped egg and/or crumbled feta if you are going to use.
Spread the avocado salad over toasted pita bread or a slice of bread. For the perfect Israeli dinner - eat with a side of an Israeli salad and scrambled eggs (she pointed out I should add that too...)
