Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 cups - Thinly sliced hearts of romaine
  2. 5 whole - Small-to-medium poblano peppers
  3. 2 whole - Ripe avocados halved and pitted
  4. 1/4 cups - Fresh cilantro chopped
  5. 3 tablespoons - Finely chopped red onion
  6. 1/4 teaspoons - Salt

Directions:

1. Preheat broiler to High.
2. Place peppers on a large baking sheet. Broil 3 to 4 inches from the heat source, turning once or twice, until the skins blacken and blister, about 10 minutes total. Transfer to a large bowl, cover with a kitchen towel and let stand until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Peel the peppers, leaving the stems attached.
3. Meanwhile, scoop avocados into a medium bowl and coarsely mash. Add cilantro, onion and salt; stir to combine.
4. Stem and seed 1 pepper; chop. Stir into the avocado mixture. Make a lengthwise slit through one wall of each of the remaining 4 peppers and carefully remove the seeds. Divide romaine among the peppers, then fill with a generous 1/3 cup guacamole each.
