Last week finished up the California Avocado Cinco de Mayo Recipe Fiesta Contest<\/a> and we had so many fabulous entries. What a fantastic group of bloggers and recipes they were, you really need to go check all of them out.<\/p>\n We had 41 tasty recipe submitted featuring the creamy California Avocados, and lucky for me it was a random drawing. I would be going crazy trying to pick just two winners!<\/p>\n Oh yes<\/em>, there are two lucky winners, but before we get to them,<\/strong> I want to feature a couple recipes that I thought looked fantastic too…<\/p>\n This Avocado and Corn Salsa<\/a> from Damn Delicious looks like the perfect way to welcome summer. I can see myself sitting in a lounge chair with a big bowl of this salsa. All. Day. Long.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n I’m pretty sure I could eat these Mexican Dogs<\/a> from Taste and Tell Blog for the rest of my life and be perfectly happy. The chipotle mayo with the creamy California Avocado sound like the best hot dog toppers to me!<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n I’m a sucker for a creamy California Avocado salad dressing, so I am totally loving this Blackened Chicken and Mango Salad with Creamy Avocado Dressing<\/a> from Fabtastic Eats. It looks and sounds so fresh and tasty!<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Like I said, I am so glad I didn’t have to pick a winner… all of you would have won!! Seriously, go and check out all the submissions<\/a> when you get a chance. You’ll be drooling all over yourself before you know it!<\/p>\n Here is the first place winner<\/strong> that was randomly chosen to win a $500<\/strong> American Express Gift Card as well as a $75<\/strong> gift basket from the wonderful people at the California Avocado Commission<\/a>….<\/p>\n This beautiful Salad with Grilled Chicken, Avocado & Tomato with Honey-Lime, Cilantro Vinaigrette <\/a>\u00a0from Jaclyn of Cooking Classy is the big winner!! This salad looks so yummy, and I am loving the combination of the California Avocados with that zesty dressing!<\/p>\nAre you ready for the big reveal??<\/h1>\n
