OK Betty….
This is one of those recipes I wouldn’t dare tackle Cayenne pepper to taste????
Seriously, I’m not a big avocado fan but I have to admit you come up with the most interesting recipes.

Beverly,
You know we like things spicy in Texas. Haha! How about a small sprinkle of cayenne pepper. Haha! Or just omit the cayenne pepper.
Avocado is a good fat and something that I had to work at developing a taste for. Now I use avocados on sandwiches, and salads to get more of that good fat into my diet. The cool avocado against spicy such as cayenne pepper is a wonderful combination.
Thanks for your comments.
