Avocado Yogurt Dip

It's almost summer and when I think summer I think creamy avocado's! This is my favourite quick avocado dip to make. When I say this dip is simple, I mean simple. The hardest thing will be peeling the avocados.

You'll need:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 ripe avocados -- peeled and seeded

- 1/2 a garlic clove
- 2 teaspoons of cilantro
- 1 chopped jalepeno -- I keep mine with the seeds because I like the kick it adds, but you can remove the seeds if you wish
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon of ground cumin
- pinch of salt and pepper

All you do now that you've got all your ingredients is blend it all together in your food processor until smooth.

I usually eat this with baked pita bread or tortilla chips, you can even add it to wraps!

Enjoy!!

My families absolute favourite dessert.
So simple and easy you'll end up making this more than once.

What you'll need is
- ground graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup of melted butter
- 2 cans of condensed milk
- 1 pack sweetened shredded coconut
- assorted chocolate chips (milk chocolate, semi-sweet, white chocolate, peanut butter etc)
- assorted chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, almonds, peanuts)

Turn your oven on to bake at 350.


Start by putting the ground graham crackers into a large baking dish, 9x13 is what I usually use. On top add the melted butter and mix it together with a fork to combine the two, and using either the fork or your hands flatten the mixture evenly.

Bake for 5 minutes.

Take the dish out of the oven, add one can of condensed milk and carefully spread it evenly over the graham cracker/butter mixture. If you think the one can isn't sufficient enough, start by adding 1/2 of the second can and then the entire if you think needed.
Sprinkle the shredded coconut, chocolate chips, and chopped nuts over the condensed milk.

Turn your oven to bake at 300, put the dish into the oven. Bake for 20 minutes.

If the top of the dish is not golden brown, turn your oven to broil - high for 2 minutes until it turns a light brown.

Take the dish out of the oven, let it set for 20-30 minutes. You can even put it into the fridge to set if you're in a hurry.

Once cooled and set, cut into squares remove from dish and enjoy!
