Mayonnaise Squirt of Juice from 1 Lemon 1 Medium Avocado 1 Cucumber Fresh Turkey Sandwich Meat Swiss Cheese Cracker of Choice (Round works best) In a bowl, combine honey, garlic, cilantro, mayo and lemon juice. Add avocado (pitted and peeled) and mix to make a creamy paste. Cut cucumber, turkey and cheese in round thin slices, so they are about the same size as your crackers.
