Avocado Mousse and Melba Toast image

November issue of Australian Table Magazine. Looks like an elegant entree for a dinner party. Cook time is chill time for Mousse and cook time for melba toast combined. Believe you could do this in a larger mould and serve buffet style surrounded with melba toast, crackers and or fresh crispy vegetables.
