Avocado Dip
Recipe video above. It's like a cross between Guacamole and Hummus! This is a great bigger-batch avocado dip that takes minutes to make, for those times when you want one avocado to go further, or when you've got friends who are split between the Guac and Hummus camps. See notes for more variations.

Steps

Cut avocado in half, remove seed. Use spoon to scoop flesh into food processor. Add remaining ingredients. Start with just a pinch of salt because canned chick peas vary in saltiness. Whizz until smooth, scraping down sides as required.

Adjust: sour with lemon, salt, pepper, and dip consistency with water. Whizz again.
