Best way to eat avocado?

All of the above but also try it with a squirt of lemon juice and a teaspoon of mayonnaise. My parents used to serve it that way to my brothers and me for a quick breakfast.

The other thing to remember is that, like an apple, avocado oxidizes rather quickly so the lemon will prevent that. This is very important especially if you are going to only eat a half and put the other half in the refrigerator. Be sure it's ripe (a little soft) before you eat it.

My biggest suggestion would be to go to a farmer's market or greengrocer and talk to someone not only about recipes and ways to eat it but also on how to tell a perfectly ripe avocado since these days it is too easy to get one that is overripe.

Oh - and the fat/oil in an avocado are among the healthiest in a food that you can eat. It's way up there!

sliced or smashed into the bread of a sandwich, quacamole made from my bullet, spread on toasted toast with an egg on top, sliced on top of an omlette, cubed into a salad... There's many ways to eat an avacado and it can replace so many different things and make your meal that tiny bit healthier.

Tip: When you remove the seed, i find the best way is to gently tap a sharp knife into it and twist. It should come off on the knife. Just be careful not to hurt yourself removing it from the knife.

1/2 mashed or sliced onto sourdough toast with a bit of mayo and maybe a few small slices of raw onion- then a few drops of hot sauce..........

make sure they're ripe before you cut them. they should be dark but not mushy, mostly firm. It's hard to find ripe ones in the store, so put it in a bag with a banana until ripe.

cut from top to bottom all the way around the pit. twit gently until it comes apart, you may need to cut it a bit more.

it can be difficult to pop the pit out if it's not ripe enough.

You should do most of the slicing and dicing while it's still in the shell and then gently scoop out with a spoon. If you're only going to use half of it, leave the pit in and wrap it tightly with saran wrap. if you're going to make a dip, add a dash or two of lemon/lime juice to keep it from turning brown.

I like them sliced on sandwiches, i guac dip and just plain. They're really good but you may not like them until you find out how you like to eat them, everyone is different! **Oh, and burritos. yum.

There is no wrong way to eat it! It's seriously one of my all time favorite foods!

diced and mixed into a salad with salsa makes a spicy, creamy dressing. I love it!

Sliced on a BLT instead of mayo.

in a wrap with chicken, sprouts, veggies

on pizza

GUACAMOLE!! Some red onions, tomatoes and chilis. Eat it with low fat nacho crisp type thingies. Mmmmmm

I make a salad with avocado, tomatoes, red peppers, onions (or spring onions) and cucumbers. All diced and with a sqeeze of lemon + 1 tbsp of olive oil and a bit of garlic salt on.
For a meal I sometimes throw in a few black olives and low fat feta. Quite high in fats, but the healthy types.

Cut it in half, remove the pit, lightly salt it, eat with spoon or fork.


Seriously legit just like that.

I used to be scared of them but now I absolutely love them.

Yes. This.
