MOLDED AVOCADO RING 
4 tbsp. + 1 tsp. unflavored gelatin
1 1/2 c. cold water
2 med. avocado, mashed (about 1 1/2 c.)
1/4 c. lemon juice
1 med. stalk celery, thinly sliced
2 green onions, chopped
1 to 2 tbsp. chopped canned chilies
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper
Salad greens
Cherry tomatoes

Over low heat dissolve gelatin in 1/2 cup water (about 3 minutes). Stir in the remaining water. Refrigerate until slightly thickened (about 40 minutes). In large bowl combine avocados and lemon juice. Stir in gelatin mixture, celery, onions, chilies, salt and red pepper. Pour in a 5 cup ring mold. Refrigerate until firm (about 3 hours). Just before serving, remove from mold on top of greens, filling the center with cherry tomatoes.
