Appetizer -- Avocado Mousse

Ingredients

3 large avocados, peeled and pitted
2 cups sour cream
2 cloves garlic
One quarter cup green onion, chopped
One quarter cup fresh cilantro
One half tsp. chili powder
One half tsp. ground cumin
One half tsp. salt
Juice of 1 lime
One third cup chicken broth or dry white wine
2 envelopes unflavored gelatin

Directions

Place first 9 ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Heat chicken broth or wine and dissolve gelatin envelopes in liquid. Add to avocado mixture and blend. Grease an 8-cup mold and line with plastic wrap. Pour mixture in mold and refrigerate for several hours or until set. Serve with tortilla chips and/or crackers.

The Skinny: Use light sour cream and fat free chicken broth or alcohol free white wine. Avocados contain a lot of fat but it is supposed to be the good kind of fat.
