Chimichurri spice gives this burger an Argentinian flair, and cubed avocado adds an irresistible creaminess. Together, the two make an unbeatable pair.
3. Lemon-Basil Shrimp Skewers with Orzo and Avocado Salad
In this recipe juicy shrimp skewers are topped with a secret ingredient— lemon-basil butter! Marinated tomatoes and creamy avocado make this orzo salad something special.
