    Ceviche (My fav summer dish) Kinda like a hispanic shrimp cocktail

    1 Avocado (mashed/cubed)
    Juice of 3 Limes
    Pico de galo (fresh/store bought)
    Cilantro (fresh/paste)
    Med Shrimp (I dice shrimp)
    Season to taste


    Mix-chill- Enjoy cold in a martini glass! Garnish with a slice of avocado. You can eat with tortilla chips, melba toast, or crackers if you like

    You can also add jalepeno if you like spicy food.


    I made this last night and took it to work. My coworkers ate the entire bowl.

    I eat two almost every day for lunch. I only have one recipe for them, but it's really good:

    1. Wash.
    2. Halve.
    3. Pit.
    4. Slice.
    5. Peel.
    6. Consume.

    Enjoy!

    =P

    This is my favorite recipe too, but even easier. Halve, remove pit, dig in with spoon. And, it is my kids' after-school snack at least one day a week, with a little sea salt sprinkled on there. We all love them. Soooo yummy!

    mash half cup chickpeas with half an avocado. if you want it less dry add either a little plain greek yogurt, light mayo, a littlle ranch. with some spices, on sandwich flat with lettuce and onion. yummmmmmm
    or you can cut it up in a salad, mash it up and mix with garlic, lime juice, a little salsa, cumin and cilantro and make a guac with it.
    or mash it up and mix with black beans, tomato, lettuce, a little salsa and have it in a tortilla or a taco shell.
    bagel thins with egg white, cream cheese if you want, and sliced avocado.
    edited to add slices of avocado with a little cumin sprinked is tasty too! or just plain, that works as well. nom nom i can't wait to pick up my groceries and have avocados tomorrow!

    Avocado-banana smoothie:

    1/2 avocado
    1/2 banana
    1 c milk
    pinch of salt (I like himalyan pink salt)

    Blend

    The salt really brings out the avocado flavour. You could also add mango juice, but in that case I'd leave out the salt.

    preheat the oven at 180 celcius
    cut the advocado in half.
    Grate some cheese you like over it and squeeze a little lemon over it.
    Then in the oven untill cheese is golden brown.

    dont go overboard on the cheese tho :D

    I start with this basic for lunch sometimes:

    1/2 c. cottage cheese
    1/2 avocado, cubed
    2-4 tablespoons salsa, to taste
    garlic powder

    For variation, I add some combination/mix of the following:
    1/2 red pepper
    cubed turkey or chicken
    1/2 of 5 oz can tuna, drained
    1/2 cup frozen peas
    1 or 2 oz turkey pepperoni, chopped
    chopped onion
    whatever your heart desires, really... :bigsmile:

    It doesn't necessarily look pretty, but it usually hits the spot for me!

    scoop out the flesh with a spoon,
    enjoy.
