It’s a little early for Cinco de Mayo, but I couldn’t resist making these – shredded beef with lime and avocado, posted by Saveur.

We changed the recipe a bit (halved it, minus the beef, which we reserved half for another recipe), and swapped jack cheese for cheddar cheese and chipotles for chiles.

I’ve never made beef brisket before and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it shredded!

We made this earlier in the day, and dinner time was a breeze.
