Avocado is one of my favorite vegetable, its creamy texture always entices me and you already know my love for chickpea dips. I love experimenting various flavor combinations with chickpeas to make healthy and gluten free dips. avocado hummus dip

Healthy or gluten free does not have to be boring. Today, jazzed-up my hummus dip with my favorite avocado to make creamy, rich yet delicious and healthy dip. It is like eating in Mexican and Mediterranean fusion restaurant. Well, idea was not just a fusion recipe, but was making it healthy. My husband and I love avocado and we can easily finish a bowl if hungry. I wanted to combine avocado with something to make our portion size more filling yet with less of avocado. avocado hummus dip

I don't say avocados are bad for you. In-fact, these are loaded with good fats. But too much of any kind of fats is not good for health. Addition of chickpeas not only gave my otherwise called "guacamole" depth of flavor, but also made it healthy and filling. avocado hummus dip

Veggie dippers are my personal favorites with creamy dips. However, everyone else in my family is dip and chip fanatics. So feel free to choose dipper of your choice. I served it with red radish, celery and corn chips.
