Babz...hhhmmm very designer!

tend not to tart up lettuce with anything, although I have had it cooked before.

Well....if its worth the effort...

That does sound nice, but i would make it with a slight variation... put garlic salt in with the avocado puree, and swerve the lemon juice and horseradish.

Dont make the avocado mixture until just before you are ready to serve, though, as it will go brown (unless you use lemon juice).

[Babz]

It does sound better with garlic added but I know someone who would want
to add curry powder or chilli to it.

I don't fancy the horseradish much any suggestions for an alterative.

Babz, I can't think where our ones are imported from? You can get some nice ones, but i still think they are quite dear.
