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.

I usually make guacamole with avocados, and then use that in tacos, in salads, in jacket potatoes, as dressing, on bread...
I just mash them, add some chopped garlic, onions and chili, salt and pepper, squeeze a lime or lemon over and done
Avocados are great!! Sure, they're quite high on fat, but the good kind. Very, very healthy and tastes good0 -
I will mash or dice it up, and put it on everything! Eggs, wraps, salads. Yum. I usually only eat 1/4-1/2 an avocado when I do.0

For those that eat a part of an avocado, what do you do with the remainder so it doesn't brown?0

I eat one almost every single day. Half an avocado for lunch and half for dinner. I throw it on some black beans + tomato + cilantro + serrano pepper on a corn tortilla.0

Leave the pit in and wrap it in plastic wrap (tight) and stick it in the fridge, it will stay good until the next day.0 -
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.0

I live alone, and I've perfected this. I use 1/2 at a time. Leave the pit in the remaining half, put it in a plastic bag or container, and leave a little hole for the gases to escape, refrigerate. It keeps for about four days this way. I also leave the whole avocado in the refrigerator until I want it to ripen for use (about a day). I usually buy four at a time, and I rarely lose one.0 -
I like making a chicken wrap with mashed up avocado spread on it with some salt and pepper, it's so good!0

Always store with pit, not sure why
1) Squeeze lemon juice on and bag
2) A light glaze of olive oil and bag
3) Bag it with slice or section of onion
I've used all of these--they all seem to work.
I use avocado for smoothies, sliced in salads (tossed, Cobb, etc.), on antipasto plate, guac, chocomole (avocado chocolate pudding), salsa and soup.0 -

This is what I have found works best.
I love avocado on crispbread or toast mixed with vegemite and sometimes topped with fresh tomato and cracked pepper. Love it on a salad roll or any salad really. I'd like to be more adventurous too, but that's really all I do with them at the moment.0 -
I love guacamole and sometimes add a little avocado to smoothies. I'll eat avocados just about anyway, but my favorite salad right now is this:
1 diced avocado, 1 diced beefsteak tomato, juice of a lime, salt and pepper and about a tablespoon or so of cilantro. Perfect with grilled chicken!0 -
I love this sandwich for breakfast.
Whole wheat bagel thin or breakfast thin toasted
slice of tomato
1 fried egg
1 strip of bacon cut in half
half avocado
tiny bit of mayo.
Great way to start the day.0
