Avocado Aioli


This creamy aioli sauce is great as a dip or a dressing.  Easy to make and made with healthy wholesome ingredients.  I loved the combination of garlic and basil along with the creamy avocado. I prepared this and served this as a dip for some fresh veggies and also some tortilla chips.  Super yummy!  I would like to make this again in the future to spread on sandwiches or maybe on tacos.  Here is the link to the original recipes from Allrecipes.com.  Hope you enjoy!
