  1. This is tasty. I would describe it as more of an avocado spread than a replacement for cream cheese, but it still tastes good on a bagel. However, do NOT try to make this in a regular-sized blender. Nothing of this thick consistency in this small amoun is ever going to work. I added 1/2C water to try to get it moving but was not successful. It just sticks to the walls. Use either a mini food processor or a 8-oz smoothie maker and save yourself the hassle.
