How to make Piadina Baskets with avocado and salmon

Let’s start making the Piadina baskets with avocado and salmon, from the piadina cut out circles, I used a flower-shaped mold,
then place the piadina in the muffin tin, gently pressing so as not to break the piadina, put in a preheated static oven at 356°F for 5/7 minutes, the time may vary depending on the type of oven, they should be golden brown, after baking, remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the baskets cool before removing them from the mold.
In the meantime, cut the avocado, remove the pit and scoop out the flesh,
put it on a plate and mash it with a fork,
add the juice of half a lime or lemon,
some extra virgin olive oil,
a pinch of salt,
and the cream cheese, mix well to have a homogeneous cream.
When the piadina baskets are cold, they will be solid and crunchy, place them on the serving plate and fill them with the avocado cream.
Take the salmon and cut a strip, roll it up to form a little rose,
place it in the basket with the avocado cream and add a quarter slice of lime,
if you like, you can add a leaf of arugula or basil to embellish the basket.
Serve the Piadina baskets with avocado and salmon or store them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
