AVOCADO, BLUE CHEESE AND BACON FILLING/SAUCE



Avocado, Blue Cheese and Bacon Filling/Sauce image

Before I was veggie/vegan I loved this. Now I just make it veggie with veggie bacon. My husband loves this too. Put it in sandwiches with pasta or on potatoes. It's a bit addictive and not for those on a diet. Adding a bit of rocket to this tastes nice and it means you have included a vegetable with your fat for the day (that makes it healthy)!
