While this recipe does not include avocado, I made it for my party since it was supposed to be Cinco de Mayo inspired. I have the cookbook to review: Triple Slow Cooker Entertaining: 100 Plus Recipes and 30 Party Plans and this recipe came out of it. Once I’ve shared the three recipes I made I will give you my full review of the book, but I will tell you now that I’ve made five recipes from the book and I haven’t found one I don’t like! This is a really good dip to have going for your Cinco de Mayo party!
