Brazilian Avocado Mousse

We are enjoying a full season of avocados and would like to share this recipe that’s inspired by a Brazilian drink that’s made from milk and honey. This recipe has been adapted for vegans by making hemp seed milk and adding lime juice. It tastes delicious and takes only three minutes to make.

Avocado, a fruit not a vegetable, is high in healthy fats, fiber, vitamins and minerals like potassium, and is low in carbohydrates/sugar.
