Creamy! A liquid, Japanese-inspired guacamole on ice -- nutritiously delicious and refreshing. We love it.

Avocado Ice

1/4 head iceberg lettuce, outer leaves removed
1 lime, peeled
1/4 cucumber
1/2 avocado, peeled and stoned
1 teaspoon wasabi (optional)
3 ice cubes

1. Juice the lettuce, lime and cucumber. Transfer to a blender and blend with the avocado and wasabi.
2. Serve over ice.

Makes 1 serving.

Food Factoids:

• Avocados are the most energy dense and nutrient-rich fruit per calorie.
• Wasabi, which is also called Japanese horseradish, is available in specialty stores and Asian markets in both paste and powder form. It has a hot, fiery, pungent flavor. Take care.
