Spicy avocado and red pepper cream

I love guacamole so I like to experiment with different recipes. This Spicy avocado and roasted  pepper cream is one of my favourites.  It’s ready in just 5 minutes – you can use jarred roasted red pepper or your own  barbecued  or grilled leftovers. I used spicy chipotle paste, which is more powerful than the normal one! If you want it super hot, you can add some fresh chilli to it too - if you want a mild version, just use the normal chipotle paste sold in most shops.
