Walnut Free Broccoli Sprout Avocado Cups with Turmeric-Cumin Dressing
These avocado cups are the kind of dish that looks like it came from a trendy café but comes together in minutes with nothing more than a whisk and a cutting board. Creamy avocado halves act as edible bowls, cradling a crisp tangle of broccoli sprouts, cucumber, and radish that brings serious texture and freshness to every bite. The real star is the golden turmeric-cumin dressing — bright with lemon juice, warm with ginger, and just bold enough to make the whole thing feel intentional and exciting rather than like a simple salad. Because every ingredient here is whole and straightforward, there's no need to scan labels or second-guess anything hiding in a sauce or spice blend. Pumpkin seeds and fresh cilantro finish it off with a little crunch and herby lift, though the dish holds its own beautifully even without them. Serve it immediately so the avocado stays vibrant and the sprouts keep their satisfying snap.
