This was surprisingly amazing! I took the suggestion of other reviewers and added a block of reduced fat cream cheese, and also substituted fresh lime juice for the lemon because it made more sense with the avacados. I increased the amount of condensed milk to about 10-12 ozs. based on similar recipes I've found (many other recipes like this call for a full 15 oz. can), and everything fit perfectly into a 9" pie crust. Definitely chill this for at least 6-8 hour if not overnight for the best set/flavor, and look for good quality, ripe avocados as this is the KEY to this recipe. Still can't get over how fresh and unique these ingredients taste together - wouldn't have expected it! Thanks so much for the recipe...this will be a new summertime favorite! :-)

This pie is quite nice! Even for those who are not big avocado fans, it's great because it ends up tasting rather like kiwi fruit more than avocado. I do double the amount of avocado in the recipe and am happy with the results. You can also substitute cream cheese and confectioner's sugar for the sweetened condensed milk if you like - it changes the texture a bit, but not in a bad way. Lots of room to tweak this one with good results!

This was too tart. We like key lime pie but this was not a good kind of tart. I made it as written and it was lip puckering tart. I couldn't taste the avacado at all. All I tasted was sour. If I was to make again I would definetly cut down the lemon and increase the sweetner. Not sure it is worth the $$ for good avacados.

I thought this pie would be wierd, but since I like avacados so much, I thought I'd try it. I am so glad I did! I used lime juice instead of lemon, and added an 8 ounce package of reduced fat cream cheese and it was out of this world! This is a very good pie for people who love avacados or even people who don't! YUMMMMM!

Yummy!! So easy to make - just whipped it up in a Magic Bullet and poured into pre-made graham crust. Couldn't be easier! And so tasty! Very creamy pie, with the lemon giving it that "key lime" taste. Highly recommended!

Wow! You would really have to like avocados to dream up this recipe. It's like guacamole with sugar in it. It wasn't bad, it was just weird. In the future though, I'll stick to eating avocados with chips.

i was reading that avocados are excellent food to eat, omega-3's and the right kind of fat to have. Never ate an avocado before, found this recipe...oh MY GOSH!! IT IS SO GOOD. Thank you for this woderful find, the family loved it! I did add a third of a block of cream cheese, as per other reviews suggested. Didn't necessarily need it, but got rid of the package fromt he fridge that way.

Great texture and flavor - very unique! I took it to work and got a lot of compliments. Tastes quite a bit like key lime pie, but with the avocado flavor. Very smooth texture if you process it well. I topped mine with cool whip. It's a keeper!

So easy and so superb! I am a huge avocado fan and have been DYING to try this recipe out! It is absolutely heavenly. I made 2 pies. Per each pie, I used 2 avocadoes, 2 LIMES, 1/2 of a 300ML can of condensed milk, and about 1/4 cup cream cheese. Blended it in my food processor and poured it into a prepared pie crust. I chilled this for like 12 hours. Tasted like KIWI for some reason. SOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!! Will make this so many more times!

Very good! This was a little on the lemony side for me though, so I might reduce the juice slightly next time. I also think I may try lime juice for a variation though., I will definitely be making again! Yummy! I didn't find the avocados to be overpowering at all. Great recipe!

I made two of these pies. The first was a bit to tart for my taste and not very solid but very tasty. The second I used less lemon juice, covered, and let set in the refridgerator for a bit over a day. The pie was more solid and had wonderful flavor. I would suggest maybe a bit of cream cheese.

This was absolutely wonderful! I had to double the recipe because I only had a 14oz can of sweetened condensed milk but then I only had 1/2 cup of lemon juice. It came out great and everyone loved it--good thing I made two! Next time I will put a little more lemon juice in it--probably 3/4 cup for a double recipe.

This pie is ok, nobody at our family get together was enthusiastic about it. It is easy to make and the taste is unique. I would suggest a little more lemon juice and a little more sweetened condensed milk...to make the avocado taste less powerful.

Everyone laughed when I said I was going to make avocado pie. However, upon tasting it they declared it a winner and went back for seconds. The simplicity of ingredients and work involved to make this is incredible. Definitely has a lemony taste so beware if you don't like tartness.

This pie is definitely unique. I thought the lemony taste was a little strong, and the consistency was kind of wierd. My fiancé liked it, but unless he asked, I wouldn't make it again.
