I based this recipe on my popular dessert hummus recipe from my blog and was very pleased with the results. I cant wait to make another batch I think next time I will add in some fresh mint to thefood processor.

Knock-off-amole

I developed a food sensitivity to avocados in my 20s. It was a sad day, as I was born in Texas and loved my moms "guac." Even if you enjoy avocados, this dip is a refreshing adaptation of the original, perfect for spring when fresh-picked peas are at their peak. If you like more heat, use an entire minced Serrano chile.
