Thanksgiving is upon us again and in Italy it is known as Ringraziamento, well anyway you say it still means ‘to give thanks’. Here is one of my favorite recipes for an appetizer for Thanksgiving.

So many times we take for granted everything we have. but remember to be thankful for whatever you have: food on the table, a roof over your head, a kitchen to cook in, friends and family to share with, the sun, the sky, the stars, the moon. We all have something to be thankful for…
An Avocado Goes to Parma
basil avocado dip

*2 ripe avocados

*juice of 1 lemon

*4 tablespoons grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

*1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

*3 tablespoons chopped sun dried tomatoes (packed in oil, drained)

 Mash the avocado. Add in all other ingredients.

If you are taking this spread with you to someone else’s house, place in plastic container and place plastic wrap against surface of avocado spread before you close container.

You can use this as a dip for breadsticks, cut vegetables, tortilla chips.

 

Happy Thanksgiving!
