This Mexican avocado tomatillo salsa is a bold, vibrant blend of creamy texture and bright, tangy flavor. Smooth and silky with just the right amount of heat, it is the kind of salsa that instantly upgrades everything it touches.
Tomatillos bring a naturally tart, fresh backbone to the salsa, while avocado adds richness and body without overpowering the other ingredients. The result is a perfectly balanced green salsa that feels both refreshing and indulgent.
Lightly cooked tomatillos and jalapeños mellow out sharpness and allow the flavors to blend seamlessly. A splash of lime juice and fresh cilantro adds brightness, keeping the salsa lively and crave-worthy.
