From Tasting Paris by Clotilde Dusoulier

Basically, it's hummus that has been tinted yellow with tumeric and then scooped or piped into the pit holes in avocado halves.

She gives the recipe from scratch, but I'm just gonna add tumeric to Sabra hummus.

1 15 oz can of chickpeas, rinsed and drained

2 tsp tahini

1 garlic clove

1 tsp ground tumeric

fine sea salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

2 TBL lemon juice

2 TBL olive oil

3 TBL water

4 avocados

1 tsp smoked or regular paprika

1/3 C pepitas (squash seeds), toasted

3 TBL finely chopped chives.

Puree the first batch of ingredients, adding a bit more water if needed for consistency of deviled eggs.

Scoop into avocado halves and decorate at will.

PS: Shoot...just found the recipe already out there.

Oh, Clotilde was the one that had that wonderful French food blog--can't call the name.

So this is to eat an entire half avocado? I would guess a vegan meal and it would be nice.
At Christmas I found "mini" avocadoes that I filled with shrimp salad as a first course.

 
Yes: Chocolate & Zucchini. My first thought was: what Parisian woman

would eat the calories in half an avocado, but your point about it being a full meal for a vegan makes sense.

 
That's it!! The mini avocadoes were really a hit--a half was fine. But avocadoes are SO good for

you!! Just keep saying it!! lol

 
Ha. That's the book I have here for the recipe above!

It's going back to the library STAT before I fall for those profiteroles on the cover.

 
Auto-spell sent tthis to my mother when we were in Paris:

"We went all out and both had dessert. His was a creme butler and mine was vanilla ice cream in a progesterone and warm chocolate aside. Ooh-la-la."
Can you figure out what we really had?

 
sorry but soylent green is first thing that comes to mind

it gets worse from there

 
LOL!!! Your hubby had creme brulee, and you had a profiterole with vanilla ice cream

and warm chocolate sauce?

 
I'm with you. ...

I've made the fudge avocado pops.



and the rich avocado "Low Carb"Chocolate Avocado Mousse...



The Avocado Chocolate Torte?

Nein Danke.

For me, avocado belongs on well toasted full grain toast, salsa, guacamole, and huevos rancheros.

Avocado as a dessert ingredient: TOTAL FAIL.
