Who doesn't love a lite, creamy, and rich avocado dip?! This recipe is great for fajita night or to top a quesadilla. It's quick and easy to make, too!

Fabulous on fish tacos! The jalapeño gives it a zesty flavor boost. This seems really versatile and would compliment a lot of dishes. Read More

Hubby made it as is but with just one avocado so did 1/3 of the other amounts. We used it as a topping on quesadillas in place of sour cream. Loved the tang of the lime. Read More

Due to the amount of produce to be chopped I found that using a cuisinart (if available) works much better than a blender... that or this blender (brand new Oster) couldn t manage it very well. Tried this as a sauce over lightly marinated chicken... definitely making this again! Read More

It was not what I was expecting. It was kind of bitter and tart. I added sour cream to it cut it a little bit. Read More
