    Oh my god that sounds yum!

    I've only discovered my liking for this MAGICAL... fruit... or veggie? not sure yet haha!

    Either way, it has to be present in my diet or I will actually die.

    do you actually have a more detailed recipe for your avocado sauce sounds deeeelish
    LOVE avocados! Tonight I'm making spaghetti squash with avocado 'sauce' (pureed avocado, olive oil, basil and a squeeze of lime, salt and pepper) and turkey meatballs.

    oh yeah that sauce is the business !!!!!!!

    Avocados are also one of my favorite foods! I like them plain, as a salad "dressing" or pretty much with anything. I love my guacamole too.

    I like to make them into a salad with grape tomatoes and very thinly sliced onions (any kind will do), then dress with balsamic vinegar.

    Avocados are up there as one of my favorite foods. How do you eat your avocado?

    I like half of an avocado (~2.5-3 oz.) sprinkled with salt with the middle filled with hummus.

    In omelets !! try it so good !!!!
    In salads or just on its own with a dash of balsamic and some S&P

    A wedge of Avocado, 2 slices of bread, 2 slices of tomato, and a big sprig of Kale. This is a great sandwich
    That sounds extremely good/simple. I may have to try that this week!

    So many great ideas! I am going to have to venture out as I only use avocado in protein shakes...makes it so smooth.

    I usually put a halfacado on my salad.
    Sometimes I eat them with a bit of salt, or sometimes I spread it on a slice of bread with black olives and a bit of salt.

    For those that eat a part of an avocado, what do you do with the remainder so it doesn't brown?

    I leave the pit in that half so that the hole doesn't get brown, drip a bit of lemon or lime juice on the cut part, and cover tightly with plastic wrap.

    One of my fave ways to eat avocado is to make a black bean salad. Drain and rinse a can of black beans, add some chopped onion, tomato, minced garlic, diced green pepper, corn if you like, diced avocado, and whatever spices you may want (I like some cumin and maybe red pepper flakes).
