Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place first 5 ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Add in sufficient water just to cover ham hocks. Season with pepper. Reduce heat and simmer till ham is very tender, turning occasionally, about 3 hrs. Remove ham from bone and shred. Throw away bones and fat. Transfer 4 c. ham to large bowl (reserve any remainder for another use).
  2. Combine lowfat sour cream, mayonnaise, minced cilantro and cumin in medium bowl. Add in celery, carrots, green onions, chilies and 3/4 c. lowfat sour cream dressing to ham and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover ham mix and remaining dressing separately and chill.)
  3. Place 2 large lettuce leaves on each plate. Thinly slice remaining lettuce. Sprinkle sliced lettuce atop whole leaves in center of plate. Mound ham filling in avocado halves. Place atop bed of lettuce. Spoon sufficient remaining dressing over to cover filling completely. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and lime.
  4. Serves 8.
