Asparagus Guacamole

This recipe was a huge score for me, as I am not an avocado fan. Even if you are, give this a try. It's fabulous, different, always a hit, and people can never guess the main ingredient. Maybe you could add margaritas and make a drinking game out of the guessing! Just a thought...

1 lb. fresh asparagus, cut in to 1 inch pieces, steamed or boiled until soft
1 small red onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic
1 small tomato, seeded and chopped
2 & 1/2 Tbsp. plain low or fat free yogurt
1 & 1/2 Tbs. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. minced fresh parsley
1/2 tsp. chili powder
5-10 drops Tabasco or other hot sauce

Place cooked asparagus, onion, and garlic in a food processor blender and process until smooth. combine remaining ingredients in a bowl, and stir in to the asparagus mixture until blended. Serve with tortilla chips or raw veggies.
