Herby Avocado spread
1 ripe avocado
1 bunch Cilantro (leaves and tender part of the stems)
1 cup Packed mint leaves
1 grilled jalapeno, deseeded and chopped
1/2 cup Unflavored greek yogurt or sour cream
1.5 tablespoons honey
2 cloves garlic, crushed
salt to taste
Grilled Halloumi bites
1 packet Halloumi cheese patted dry and sliced into 1/4 inch thick slices
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup finely diced fresh pineapple pieces
slivers of cherry or plum tomato
1 tablespoon Amoked ancho chile powder

1
Combine the Cilantro, garlic and mint in food processor and pulse about 6-8 times, until the leaves are coarsely minced. Add the Jalapeno, avocado, lime juice, honey, sour cream (or greek yogurt). Blend together and combine into a smooth spread with the consistency of mayonnaise. Cover the surface with plastic wrap to remove any air, and store in the refrigerator until ready to assemble the appetizer.
2
Cut the Halloumi cheese into 1/4 inch thick slices and drizzle liberally with the Olive oil. Heat a grill pan until smoking and gently place the cheese on the surface. Allow to grill until the char marks form (about 3 minutes) and then flip over carefully to grill the other side. Cut into small squares. Arrange on a platter, spoon a 1/4 teaspoon of the Avocado spread onto the cheese. Top off with a sliver of pineapple and tomato and a sprinkling of ancho chile powder.
