Ingredients:

3 large, ripe avocados, or 6 smaller Haas avocados, peeled, pitted, and cut into chunks

Pinch of cayenne (red) pepper

2 cups plain yogurt

Juice of 1 lime

1 teaspoon dry sherry or dry white wine

1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh mint or coriander (cilantro)

Salt to taste

2 cups skim milk

Chopped fresh coriander (cilantro), chives, or tomatoes for garnish, optional

Cooking Instructions:

Place the avocado chunks in a food processor fitted with a steel blade or in a blender, sprinkle with the lime juice, add the remaining ingredients (except the garnish), and process until smooth (you may have to do this in batches).
