Tomatillo-Avocado Salsa

This green salsa is delicious.  Simply put, it is versatile and can be used with almost any taco, but personally I like to dip chips in it and eat it straight.  One thing I really enjoy about this salsa is the color.  The green is so vibrant and in your face, that if you serve it to non-foodie friends, they may stare at you (which is fun).
