Looking for a quick appetizer to bring to a party?  This is it!  You can make this dip in advance without worrying about the avocados turning brown.  The fresh lemon juice and sour cream layer keep the avocados a nice, bright green color.  Serve with tortilla chips – the multi-grain “Scoops” are a perfect match.
