Smooth. Fresh. “Healthy” never tastes boring when there is avocado in the mix!  When I crave a fatty, feel-good food, avocado is my go-to nosh.  This easy-to-make avocado-spinach dip is one of the many ways I enjoy avocado (and an easy way to eat spinach).  It’s also a crowd pleaser.  Fresh basil leaves (optional) and lemon add brightness and zest.  If you want to add a little heat, add a dash of red cayenne pepper—start with 1/8 teaspoon and go from there.
