I will be sharing other enticingly delicious and refreshing recipes in which avocados take center stage. The whole idea is to kick off this summer with a series of avocado ideas that go beyond Guacamole. Certainly, this savory Avocado Mousse is not the exception.

The Avocado Mousse calls for just a handful of ingredients. And in all likelihood you already have all or most of them handy in your pantry and your fridge. You can fix it in a jiffy.

It is the perfect appetizer for a hot day, it is light and creamy and so full of flavor!

I have also written a post about all the health benefits that avocados boast. I will publish that one soon. Additionally, you will find there a few tips on how to pick avocados and how to store them.

Stay tuned and remember to check out our other avocado recipes in the coming weeks. And yes, there will be desserts too!
