Avocado Sour Cream dip


Today will be relatively short. A really simple dip that uses only 3 ingredients. Two of which are in the name. It's got a nice lightly green color to it and it can be used as a sandwich spread. How about that? It's got a nice smooth and creamy texture to it with a lovely blend of the sour cream and avocado flavors. Yum! This is perfect for parties. If you put this out on a buffet table, you'd probably find me standing next to the bowl of this dip, nibbling away.

I served this with some garlic rosemary baked fries. Have it with some chips or bread.

Note: if not baking the fries right aways, keep them soaked in water spiked with a little white vinegar to keep them from browning.

Avocado Sour Cream Dip
1 medium avocado
1-2 Tbsp Sour Cream
juice of half lemon.

Combine all ingredients together. Mash the avaocado until creamy and leave a few chunks.




Serve them way while hot.

    rosemary fries sound good to me right now. i was thinking about how my basil plant didn't survive, but my rosemary is looking great.

    I like your dip, but never thought of pairing it with fries. I love the fries though, so it sounds like a great pairing.
