mexican flavored pizza

While casting around for ways to use our pile of very ripe avocados I decided to make the tried and true recipe: namely pizza.

Wouldn't it be nice to be in Mexico right about now - when you are totally over the cold weather and you wake up with (Gasp!!) more snow to clear off the car. That white fluffy stuff that was so appealing until you realized your car was covered in it and couldn't move without its deceptively heaviness being hauled away. Thanks goodness for kind strangers - I've been dug out more than once by total strangers. Isn't NYC great!!
