I bought a few avocado's today, starting during the week I would love to try and make a delicious / healthy avocado sandwich since I just can't seem to eat avocado by itself lol. Any delicious, healthy recipes you can provide? :) Or how do you like your avocado? And sandwich ideas? Any ideas are helpful & appreciated.. thanks!

    I love them on low fat whole grain tortillas! Add some cheddar cheese, and vegetables and you got yourself one delicious vegetarian wrap!

    Guacamole is pretty easy - sometimes I mash it and add a little taco seasoning.

    I mash it, mix in some salsa, and stir in some black beans. I eat it with soy flax seed tortilla chips.

    I cube the avocado before it gets mushy toss it with diced fresh tomatoes, diced white onions, little bit of olive oil, red wine vinegar and salt and pepper to taste. Great healthy salad.

    I use it will light cream cheese as a spread, its my version of PB and J :)
  • Guacamole!

    When I'm in a pinch, I mash it up, add some lemon juice, garlic, and cracked red pepper.

    When I have more time on my hands, I chop up red onions and add salsa to the above mixture.

    Spread it on Triscuits and you're in HEAVEN!

    BELLIGERENT AND NUMEROUS.

    Also I like mine spread on toast. And eaten plain with a spoon.

    And on salad and sandwiches.

    And um -- pretty much on anything.

    If you like shrimp; try cutting up cooked shrimp into pieces, add small cubes of avocado, some salsa and a squirt of fresh lemon. I add Pampered Chef Citrus and Basil & Lemon Pepper Rubs but you can add your preference of seasoning. Tastes so good!

    I mash it until it is smooth and use it as a mayo substitute in my sandwiches! Tastes amazing!

    Cut in half, a little salt and pepper and spoon out!
    Cut up and put on any salad.
    Mash and add your favorite salsa for a quick guacamole.
    Mash with light miracle whip and spread on toast

    Cut in half, remove pit. Add salt. Get spoon. Use spoon to deliver the goods to the pie-hole.

    In my mouth. Avocados are delicious.
    Alternately, in a spicy California salad.

    2 imitation crab sticks (leg style), chopped up
    1/4 avocado, chopped
    about an inch of cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced, then sliced again into quarters.
    1 tablespoon of light mayo
    1 teaspoon of sriracha chili sauce

    Mix, eat, yum. It's a good snack or along with something else small for a meal.

    I like them chopped and added to green salads, in guacamole (and spread on sandwiches in that form), and I love them chopped and added, just before serving, to a bowl of chicken tortilla soup.

    Shaken, not stirred. I mean...

    If I'm not eating it straight up, I'll add some yogurt and honey to the middle and eat it that way. It's delicious.

    Chopped or sliced into sections, add salt and pepper....sometimes with a tortilla and some tapatio sauce.
    I feel fortunate to live near the avocado capital of the world :wink:
