Hopefully it still tasted good! I guess it could be a difference in avocado sizes and salsa thickness. Hopefully it still tasted good!

It wasn't even green!! Once I added the salsa and sour cream, it is now a light salsa color. And it is much runnier than yours. I measured everything exact too. So, how did you get yours to look so green and thick??? I made this dip today but mine totally did NOT look like yours in the picture. It wasn’t even green!!

It has bananas, apples, and I add frozen blueberries instead of the cranberries. This is also grain free and refined sugar free. http://www.thespunkycoconut.com/2010/08/banana-fruit-bread-gluten-free-dairy.html The Spunky Coconut has a great recipe for Banana-Fruit-Bread.

I also like sliced avacado on burgers and in salads. I spread mashed avacado on toasted bread in place of butter or mayo for bacon-lettuce-tomato (and jalapeno) sandwiches.

I am trying to add more veggies to our diets and got a great recipe from a friend for Spinach and Fruit Smoothies that my kids love! Here it is: Take one cup of water and fill your blender to the top with Spinach. Puree it down. Add fresh or frozen strawberries, blueberries, or any other berries you can think of. If you use fresh berries, I would add a little ice as well. Then I would also add a little sweetner to taste and either a bananna or some yogurt to mask the spinach after taste. My baby sucks this stuff down like it is candy, and so does my 10 year old! Hope you enjoy! I just stumbled on your website and find it absolutely inspiring!

Yum! It's from Deceptively delicious cookbook. Tastes more like rich chocolate icing. This sounds good too though. May have to try it soon. I love to make avocado chocolate pudding! Yum!

This recipe sounds a lot like something my daughter does at our fav Mex restaurant. She mixes a serving of guacamole with a serving of Pico de Gallo(sp?), then mixes in a coupla Tbs or so of their cheese dip (made from a Mexican cheese). I've tasted it and it's GREAT! Sadly, after a few bites, she then stirs that up with her rice, beans, and greens and eats it all together with a BIG smile! She loses me there. :-) Mmmmm.

It was absolutely delicious! So if you don't have time to make guac., just chunk them and toss them into the salsa, and enjoy!
