AVOCADO MOUSSE



Avocado Mousse image

This avocado mousse is really easy to whip together and has so much rich, tangy, and zesty flavor. Super versatile, my favorite ways to use it are as a taco, burrito bowl, or fajita topping, or switch it up for a salad dressing (it's particularly good in a Cobb salad), a dip for a crudite platter, or spread on a sandwich or burger.
