    If you end up trying it and absolutely hating it, it's LOVELY mixed with coconut oil and used as a deep conditioning treatment in your hair!

    ah ha ha ha.... that's funny!

    But seriously, my mom introduced it to me when I was little. She would chunk it, and add salt, olive oil and lemon juice. That's my favorite way, but love it as guacamole or in a black bean and corn salsa. I just love it.
  • MMMMmmmmmmm Avocados, I love them on anything. well almost anything.
    sliced on a BLT, awesome.

    I can't believe I forgot about the BALT!!!!

    I smoosh them on wholegrain toast and dust with salt and pepper (no need for butter). I sometimes add sliced tomato on top. Makes a really yummy, low calorie, healthy and filling breakfast or lunch.

    ^This^ Yum.

    I replace the butter in my baked cakes with avo! Beautiful dense and smooth consistency

    Really? I'll have to try that. Do you use it routinely as a butter substitute in baked goods? i.e. brownies, cookies, etc.? or just cakes?

    My lunch today: salmon stuffed avocado

    Avocado (half)

    Mix:
    1 ounce of grilled salmon
    1 ounce of greek yogurt
    Tablespoon scallions
    Teaspoon Dijon mustard
    Salt/pepper to taste

    Stuff that avocado...yum! (& under 200 calories!) have two for a meal, or spread it over a tortilla for a "cold pizza"
  • I'm really lazy. I just cut the avacado in half, scoop the nut out, lightly sprinkle it with salt, take a spoon and just start digging straight into it.

  • Not really a recipe but I love spreading avocado on wheat toast and drizzling it with a bit of honey. It's delicious & filling!
