Not Sure About Consistency
This had a decent flavor--subtle and fresh tasting, but we weren't enamored by the consistency, which was a bit too mouse-like for us. Perhaps we could try blending it for a shorter time period (although we note that we did follow the directions in that regard).

Avocado Hollandaise
After reading review of recipe, I added granular garlic, Greek seasoning, and ground Mild Hatch Green Chiles to vitamix. Also added 1 tablespoon green chili infused olive oil to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil. I'm from Texas and cook with lots of "spice", but do not think it was too spicy. If worried, skip the pepper infused oil. A healthy topping for Eggs Benedict.

Good and easy
It was easy to put together, and tasted great. The taste is nice and bright with the lemon.

Pretty Good
I don't know what Hollandaise is supposed to taste like so I think I made it right? I had a smaller avocado and 4 tablespoons of lemon juice sounded like overkill. 3 tablespoons worked fine. I used one tablespoon of canola oil. (Didn't have veg oil. 4 tablespoons of that sounds like overkill too). Overall it tasted good.

Great recipe and flavor!
Perfect consistency and flavor, under a minute. The instructions were easy to follow and the blender does it's own magic.

Yum.
A hollandaise that does not break! This was the first thing we made with my new and first Vitamix. We poached eggs (from our chickens), but them on 21 grain toast, and topped with this lemony avocado hollandaise. Garnished with hot sauce and a slice of avocado.

Loved It!
This was so easy to make. Next time I will either use a bigger avocado or a little less water for a firmer mix.
