Happy Meatless Monday. As if we need another reason to adore avocados? They are quite possibly the most amenable fruit available. They want to be blended, cubed or stuffed, frozen, deep fried or consumed in the raw. You prefer them savory, sure thing. Need a dessert…no problem. I created a mousse with avocado, dates, cocoa […]
