Spicy Turkey Croquettes with Avocado Sauce

We are into week 2 of 2012 and I think I'm ready to start the new-year-self-overhaul.  I did not do any resolutions this year because I think they are a way to set yourself up for disappointment later in the year (I didn't lose 20 pounds by my birthday? I haven't run 3 miles each day? booo me), therefore I have made myself a Feel Better Commitment.  I am not going to measure my success by pounds lost or miles run but by how I feel, physically and emotionally.  I knew I was on the right path when I started singing in the shower yesterday morning and forgoing my usual cup of Friday morning coffee last week.  With this new found spring in my step I tackled the pile of recipes to find something that wasn't fried or swimming in cream sauce.  And, with a little tweaking I found the perfect dinner to celebrate my Feel Better Commitment jump-off.

Avocado Fries

It's Thursday way-too-early morning (anyone else up at 5:30 today?) and I've hit my working week wall.  Tonight I'll be going down to Corvallis to the OSU Beavers basketball game and then sleeping in the car all the way back to Astoria, getting up again tomorrow and finishing off my week.  Needless to say I'm low on energy.  Good thing I was planning on posting my Avocado Fries on a low energy day!  I made these the other night and was hooked.  I'm not sure if it was the warm outside with smooth avocado on the inside, or just making a sinfully decadent treat that I didn't have to share with anybody, but they were amazing.
