    Cut it in half and remove the pit. Put the halves into a bowl, lightly salt it, and eat that mofo with a fork.

    Yes!!!

    Also, avocado sushi is yummy and easy to make.

    Or quinoa+black beans+corn+peppers+tomatoes with avocado on top.

    Ok. I'm making myself hungry. Must stop.

    Cut it into halves and lightly salt it....or like my hubby does, put vinegar on it. I also like it on sandwiches.

    My new favorite thing to do with avocado:

    1 cup fat-free milk
    1 scoop vanilla protein powder
    1 Tbsp flaxseed
    1 small AVOCADO
    1 Tbsp agave nectar
    2 cups ice

    Blend until smooth.

    Is this man mad? He means a teaspoon surely? ;-) Mmmm


    I like freshly ground black pepper on mine too.

    I've never eaten one before either - would it "go" in a smoothie, d'ya think?

    I love avocado and I like to just take the pit out and put a little salt on it...tastes buttery and yummy to me. BUT last week I got this smoothie recipe out of a magazine and I made it..IT WAS SOOOO GOOD!

    Avocado& Banana Smoothie

    1 avocado
    1 banana
    1/2 cup nonfat plain greek yogurt
    1 1/2 cup orange juice
    1/4 cup honey
    2-3 cups of ice

    Blend together til smooth and it serves 4.

    It was so good..my son who says guacamole and avocado are "yucky" drank this smoothie like it was going out of style it was soooo good.

    I mean, eat it, obviously. But I've never had one before. Do I eat it raw? Steam it? I keep reading how people love them. How do you eat yours?

    Just remember it has to be slightly soft to the touch. If theavacado is still firm it is not ripe. When you squeeze it it should give just a bit.

    I like to mash it and use it as a spread or mixed instead of mayonaise with tuna.

    Mashed and used on a sandwich in place of mayo
