Avacado Dressing &/or Dip

Ingredients

• 1 large avocado
• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves
• 3/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Puree until smooth,
2. Enjoy!!

** I leave out the oil to make it more "dip-like"

Super yummy & the hot sauce gives it a little KICK!

Smashed Red Potatoes

These have quickly become a favorite!!!

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. 
• Boil some red potatoes until fork tender.
• Drizzle olive oil on a baking sheet, set potatoes on sheet and using a potato masher (or back of a spatula), gently smash each potato down, rotating masher both ways (so it looks like a thick cookie). 
• Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle herbs or seasoning (I use Mrs. Dash garlic herb).
• Then, top with some low fat mozzarella cheese. 
• Bake for 20 minutes.

Remember when....

I am constantly amazed by my 4 yr old's memory... She never forgets ANYTHING!

I think it is totally true that 90% of my brain cells went to her when she was born... I used to have a great memory (I think?) but am now a huge ditz.
