Yield: servings
Equipment

- 1 large clove garlic peeled
- 1 large avocado approximately 10-12 ounces; halved, pit removed, flesh scooped out
- ½ cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 2-3 tablespoons fresh lime juice juice of 1 large lime, more or less to taste
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Place 1 large clove garlic in food processor and process alone briefly until roughly chopped.
- Add 1 large avocado and ½ cup full-fat plain Greek yogurtlitz until very smooth.
- Add 2-3 tablespoons fresh lime juice and salt, a bit at a time, until desired taste is achieved.

Notes
- Avocado: Make sure you scoop out the very dark green flesh that's closest to the skin. It's the most nutrient dense part of the avocado flesh and you don't want to miss out on it!
