Ripe avocados get mashed with fresh lime juice right away to keep that vivid green color, then folded together with chopped cilantro, thinly sliced scallion greens, garlic-infused olive oil, and a hit of ground cumin for warmth. The whole mixture gets spooned into crisp cabbage cups instead of tortilla chips, so every bite comes with a satisfying crunch and a fresh, cooling contrast to the creamy avocado. It's a bright, herby dip that leans on citrus and aromatics for flavor rather than a heavy hand with the shaker, making it an easy fit for anyone watching their sodium intake. Finish with a few cilantro leaves and lime wedges on the side, and it's ready to serve as a light appetizer or a low-sodium snack that still feels indulgent.

Separate 8–12 large, cup-shaped outer leaves from the cabbage head, rinse them under cold water, and pat dry. Arrange on a serving platter and set aside.
Place the avocado flesh in a medium mixing bowl. Add the lime juice immediately to prevent browning, then mash with a fork or potato masher to your preferred texture — chunky with visible avocado pieces, or smoother with just a few lumps remaining.
