    Blend avocado with cocoa powder, a splash of milk, and honey. The best mousse you'll ever taste!

    I mash avocado with chocolate whey powder. i dig it. some people prefer to put a little cocoa and sweetener in to balance out the taste a bit.

    HA! Dinner was at 6. The 5 of us went through 8 avocados. They were the small ones, mind you. Oh, it was so good. And easy to whip up, too. Total prep time? I don't think it's even 5 minutes.

    I love avocados, but unfortunately they're pricey here in the UK.

    YES SO good for you! I usually eat half an avacado per day... that's about equal to the fat in a serving of potato chips.. and it's a totally different type of fat. You need fat to lose fat!

    The first time I dieted I restricted my fat intake to 20 grams a day. I would not eat avocados or olives or anything with "good fat" because I thought all fat was the same. I lost 125 pounds doing it this way but it was so restrictive and boring that I was not very happy. Now I have a better understanding of things and eat avocadoes all the time! Good fat sources make it easier to skip the bad ones.
