Creamy taco topping and sauce
This versatile avocado-based topping is equally delicious with fish, chicken, turkey, or tofu tacos.
Avocados, with their creamy texture, are a healthy and nutrient-packed addition to many recipes. They are high in potassium, fiber, and monounsaturated fats, as well as other vitamins and minerals.
I found this recipe in one issue ofFood & Nutrition Magazineand thought I would share it with you. I initially thought of it as a fish taco topping, but have been using it to top chicken, turkey and tofu dishes as well. All you need is a corn or whole wheat tortilla, a choice of protein and this topping to make an easy and nutritious meal.
