Avocado Sherbet

This sweet treat made my Thursday so much more bearable.

An easy sherbet made in the blender with a touch of lemon peel for a tasty perk.

I blend this creamy concoction in the morning as I enjoy my first cup of morning coffee, stash it in the fridge and it’s ready for dinner.  Doesn’t get much easier.

I’d also love to share the video from Blogher12.  As an Avocados from Mexico ambassador I asked fellow bloggers attending the conference

“What’s your favorite recipes using Avocados from Mexico?” and

“What comes to mind when you think of avocados?”

I think it came out great~ Check it out!

    This sherbet sounds heavenly! And for me, it’s not an avocado if it’s not from Mexico!
