Vegetables have plenty of vitamins, nutrients and should be a primary part of your diet along with fruits and meats. Avocados are a very healthy and nutritious fruit. Avocado cholesterol diet is beneficial for lowering cholesterol, despite of avocado fat content and carbohydrate. The reason is that avocado is a great source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fat. The avocado fat is a type of fat that may actually help to raise levels of HDL "good"cholesterol" which actually protects arteries, while lowering levels of LDL "bad" cholesterol". I have come up with my own recipe that you can use as an appetizer to your main meal and works well at parties. No it is not Guacamole, it is something much different.


Just some facts about Olive oil which I also add to the broth in preparation of this dish. All types of olive oil contain monounsaturated fat, but "extra-virgin" or "virgin" olive oils are the least processed forms, so they're the most heart healthy. Those types contain the highest levels of polyphenols, a powerful antioxidant that also can promote heart health.

For this tasty dish you will need:

1 Avacodo
1 Tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 Cup of vegetable broth (homemade is preferred)
1/2 Cup of milk (non fat is preferred)
2 heaping tablespoons of non fat plain unsweetened yogurt
1/4 Teaspoon of garlic powder
1/4 Teaspoon of onion powder
Touch of Fresh ginger and ginger powder
Black ground pepper to taste (topping)
Cayenne pepper to taste (topping)
Chives- garnish on top of soup
2 - drops of Pure Sherry extract (optional and added before blending)

The best option is to use skim milk (non fat milk) in this recipe. If you can't have dairy products then soy milk will work just fine. You can also add 1 cup instead of a half cup of vegetable broth if you like a thinner consistency. As for me I enjoy the thicker and creamier consistency of this dish.
