Ingredients

Avocado Mousse

2 ripe avocados (about 14 oz / 400 g)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (30 ml)
1 clove garlic minced
¼ teaspoon salt (1.5 g)
¼ teaspoon black pepper (1 g)
1 tablespoon fresh dill chopped (15 g)

Tacos

8 small low-carb tortillas (store-bought or homemade)
8 oz smoked salmon (225 g)
½ cup cherry tomatoes halved (75 g)
¼ cup red onion thinly sliced (40 g)
¼ cup capers (40 g)
Fresh dill for garnish

Instructions

Cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a food processor. Add the lime juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and fresh dill to the food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
If using store-bought low-carb tortillas, warm them slightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side to make them pliable. Spread a generous layer of avocado mousse on each tortilla. Top with slices of smoked salmon, cherry tomato halves, red onion slices, and a sprinkle of capers.
Garnish each taco with additional fresh dill for a pop of color and flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing and satisfying meal.

Notes

Feel free to customize toppings with your favorite ingredients, such as arugula or cucumber slices for added crunch. For a spicier kick, add a dash of hot sauce to the avocado mousse. This recipe can be easily doubled for larger gatherings or meal prep for the week.
