Instructions
In a large bowl, toss yucca, olive oil, half of the cilantro and the juice of one lime. Season chips with salt and pepper. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick spray, then lay yucca slices flat on a baking sheet.
Bake for 4 to 6 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
In a medium bowl, mix diced avocado with remaining cilantro and lime juice; season with salt and pepper and mash to your favorite consistency - I like mine chunky. Save those avocado shells to use as a serving "bowl."

WindRacer Russian River Pinot Noir
Beautiful aromas of sassafras, mocha and black licorice demonstrate the unique, bold personality of the Russian River Valley. Distinct flavors of brambly fruit, sweet oak and white pepper lead to a broad, balanced wine with food-friendly acidity. Russian River's warm, sunny days and cool foggy nights are optimal for Pinot Noir – the wines have great texture and weight without being overdone or losing their natural acidity. The classic deep, dark aromas and flavors the Russian River is known for shine through in this wine.
