Avocados, the Green buttery nutty fruit, were once a luxury food reserved for the tables of royalty. They are rich in monounsaturated fat, and have more than twice as much potassium as a banana. Served in many ways, but not hot, because it easily become bitter when cooked in high heat. It can be served as a desert, soup or juice, along with many choices as an appetizers.
My kids like to eat avocados as is, with a sprinkle of some honey on the top, a very delicious and nutritious snacks.
In this recipes, the middle eastern way in preparing avocados as avocado hummus dip version, adding the tahini sauce will elevate the flavor and enhance the color protection, served with peta bread or chips.

Where are the chickpeas? It’s not hummus without chickpeas. Good idea, though – mix hummus and guacamole, voila! Gonna do it. Thanks for the idea!
Good Cooks said:
Yes no chickpeas, only avocado. Thanks for stopping by.
