For all you die hard avocado fans, my Vegan Avocado Cream with Crackling Seeds. I make this recipe time and time again. I love it as a dip with crackers of crudités but it also works really well stirred into vegetable or legume noodles. Also great smothered on baked potatoes or, if you’re low carb like me, roasted pumpkin or any other roasted vegetable come to think of it!
This is my basic recipe but hey you guys go crazy with it and customise the toppings. Works well with any nut and seed combo. I often throw on some sun dried tomatoes, roasted pumpkin or fresh olives. Sometimes I add a good pinch (about 1/3 teaspoon) of garlic powder to the base too. Try both ways and see which you prefer.
