Avocado Mousse and Melba Toast

"November issue of Australian Table Magazine. Looks like an elegant entree for a dinner party. Cook time is chill time for Mousse and cook time for melba toast combined. Believe you could do this in a larger mould and serve buffet style surrounded with melba toast, crackers and or fresh crispy vegetables."

  1. I made this recipe and put some aside before adding the gelatin. It made a great dip with veggies. I am using the rest as a spread for lunches tomorrow. The moulds turned out just as well. I used store bought crackers and melba toast. Very good and very easy! Made for the Bargain Basement holiday tag.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
