Avocado Hummus

Today I wanted to make some hummus, but I noticed I still had an avocado to eat that was ripe.  I decided to come up with a hummus recipe using both cannellini beans and avocado.  The combination of avocado, mild beans, and green chilies made a very satisfying and filling snack! Give it a try, it is simple and easy to make and will give you a healthy real food snack packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fats along with vitamins and minerals from the veggies you eat with it!  Please comment  below and tell me what you think!
