Default Avocado a day

Ever since Brian Williams reported that eating an avocado a day can lower your cholesteral, I have been looking for ways to include it in my diet beyond sandwiches and salads. On GMA today they were talking about Avocado Pudding. I had to try it and whipped together my own recipe but there are lots of versions if you google. I didn't want to use my processor so I smashed one avocado smooth with a fork, added a little less than 1/4 cup cocoa and used 1/4 cup corn syrup as my sweetener. Some recipes called for brown sugar and milk but mine was smooth enough with the corn syrup.
It will be my lunch today as it is supposed to replace a meal because of the calories. Give it a try and it is pretty tasty.
