For the past several months I have been totally addicted to avocados. I've been eating them on average of 3 to 4 times a week and almost always in the same form. I make a guacamole type mixture using avocado, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper, hot sauce, lemon juice and a splash of mayo or sour cream. Then I break out a bag of organic tortilla chips or stuff a whole wheat or spinach soft tortilla with the avocado mix and some veggies and tofu! YUM! I find avocado to be a huge comfort food for me. My favorite sushi roll is the avocado shitake roll at Miyabi (now called Naru) on Osborne. The two textures are such a satisfying combination! Now I was some sushi.

Anyway, I've taken some shots of my process for making my tasty avocado dip. Give it a try and let me know how it goes! You can always add stuff like crushed garlic, chopped bell peppers or hot peppers or whatever else you can dream up. No matter what, I'm sure it'll be a hit. As for last night's dinner, the left-overs went to M when he got home from work with the munchies and I had my avocado dip in a tortilla with some jalapeno monterey jack cheese, bread and butter pickles and the triangle tofu cut into slices and reheated wrapped in a soft tortilla. Once again, a tasty meal of avocado goodness!

And of course it was followed by one of my super yummy chocolate cream cheese cupcakes. I make sure to have cupcakes frozen at all times for a guaranteed yummy dessert after every dinner. I get grumpy when I don't get dessert.
