This smooth, herbal salsa is a nice alternative to tomato-based versions. The tartness of the tomatillos balances the creamy richness of the avocado. We greatly preferred serrano chilies over jalapeños here, as they provided more fruitiness and flavor. Serve with tortilla chips, tacos, quesadillas, enchiladas and fried or scrambled eggs.

Tip

Don't forget to seed the serrano chilies. This salsa is meant to be creamy and cooling, not sharp and spicy. Also, be sure to roughly chop the chilies before adding them to the processor so they break down easily.
