Yum Alert: Avocado Whipped Potatoes w/ Caramelized Onions

Written by Ashley

Make your potato side dish fancy. And green.


I’ll admit that I’m not a tremendous Avocado fan.  I enjoy the odd chip dipped in to guac, but you’ll never find me ordering avocado atop my salad.  With that said, in the same sense that my tastes lean more toward guacamole, if you mix an avocaod with a potato and make it spicy… and I’m game.  Try this to add some healthy fats to your next potato side dish.
