Notes
Expert Tips
- Make sure the avocado is ripe. You can tell by giving the avocado a gentle squeeze - if it's slightly squishy you know it's ready.
- Use a silicone or rubber spatula to scrape out the mousse from the blender. It's very thick and will not pour easily.
- Stop the blender and scrape down the edges to ensure all ingredients are fully blended into the mousse. (You don't want sneaky chunks of avocado!)
- Chill the mousse for at least 4 hours so it has time to thicken up.
How to store leftovers
Leftovers should be stored in the refrigerator in airtight containers. (You can also top the dishes with plastic wrap or a reusable wrap.) They will last about 5 days. ** See full post for more information & helpful tips!Nutrition
