I discovered half an avocado that needed to be used so it was blended with a little fat free Greek yogurt and lime juice and transformed into a delicious, smooth creamy topping that I am going to call Avocado Cream and it made this potpie extra special. Perfection! This topping will be made again and again and used on tacos, burritos, nachos and taco salad.
Avocado Cream
- 1/4 cup Fage fat free Greek Yogurt
- 1/2 avocado, cut into 1/2-inch dice
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
Place all ingredients in a mini food processor or a blender and process until smooth. You could add cilantro or cumin if desired.

HI Frank! The avocado cream really isn’t a dessert – I use it as a garnish on top of Mexican food! It’s really good!
