I love this recipe as a dip with rice chips or tortilla chips. Our guests always rave about the flavor and freshness of this dip. But it is also wonderful as a tangy, creamy cilantro-avocado dressing on a salad of romaine lettuce, grape tomatoes and black beans, with crumbled tortilla chips or toasted pine nuts on top.
