Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Guavas

    Wash the ripe guavas thoroughly under running water. Cut them in half to check for ripeness and remove any blemishes. If the guavas are firm, let them ripen for a day or two at room temperature.

  2. 2

    Make the Cream Cheese Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, honey, and lime juice. Mix well until the ingredients are smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness with more honey if desired.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dish

    Scoop out a small portion of the guava flesh using a spoon and fill each half with the cream cheese mixture. Ensure each guava half has a generous amount of the mixture.

  4. 4

    Garnish

    Sprinkle a pinch of chili powder on top of each filled guava half for a contrasting flavor. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing touch.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Arrange the guava halves on a serving platter. Serve immediately as a refreshing appetizer or dessert.
