This recipe is adapted from Nigella Express, by British food writer Nigella Lawson. We found the combination of two rich ingredients—avocado and blue cheese—to be a marriage made in heaven.

1 cup (8 ounces) crumbled Roquefort or St Agur blue cheese
1/4 cup sour cream
2 ripe avocados
1/4 cup sliced pickled jalapeño peppers
2 green onions, finely sliced
1/2 teaspoon fresh lime juice
Blue corn tortilla chips
Instructions
1. Crumble or mash the cheese. Stir in sour cream. Add avocados. Mash with a fork.
2. Roughly chop jalapeños. Add to avocado mixture. Stir in green onions and lime juice.
3. Arrange in the center of a plate or dish and surround with tortilla chips. Serves 8.

This recipe was delicious! The recipe was good but called for more blue cheese than suits my taste. Also used 'Hot and Sweet' Jalapeños, which were an interesting change to the recipe. Will make this again!
