~~Avocado Citrus Sauce~~

Revised

[Original from Haas Avocado newsletter]

 

3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

2 Tbsp butter

½ Cup *whipping cream

½ tsp orange zest finely chopped

2 Tbsps orange juice

1 Tbsp lime juice

1 Tbsp lemon juice

1 large Hass Avocado, pureed

¼ tsp salt (+ as needed)

Black pepper

6 slices each lemon, lime, and orange

Sauté garlic in a small amount of butter until soft but not colored, about 2

minutes.

Stir in cream.

Heat to a simmer, stirring frequently; do not boil.

Stir in orange zest, juices, avocado, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Keep warm.

 

*To cut calories, I would substitute skim condensed milk for the whipping cream.

 

As a garnish: use another 1/2 [or one] avocado sliced with

1/2 orange slices to give this dish a nice finish.

 

~~~Why not serve this on some brown rice or pasta and include vegetarian protein

of a sausage style?
