Directions

• In steamer or boiling water, steam or cook zucchini for 5 minutes or until tender. Drain well and mash. Cool.
• In a bowl, combine green onion, garlic, jalapeno pepper, lime juice, and salt.
• Peel, seed, and mash avocado. Add to green onion mixture along with zucchini. Mash and stir until the mixture is smooth with some small chunks.
