    I made an avocado lime dressing the other day. That day I used it on salad and last night, I topped off my chicken breast with it. It's freaking awesome.

    1/2 an avocado
    1/2 cup chopped cilantro (optional)
    1 Tablespoon lime juice
    1/2 cup plain low fat greek yogurt
    1/3 cup water
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/2 Tablespoon garlic
    1/2 Tablespoon cumin

    I like it as a base for mousse. I've made lime mousse (avocado, lime and maple syrup) and chocolate mousse (cocoa, avocado, maple syrup, and vanilla). I don't eat this daily, but it's a healthier dessert than traditional mousse.

    This is my favorite recipe. I don't use any frosting though so it turns out tasting more like a brownie. Oh so delicious.

    - eggs in the morning: Whisk together 3 eggs with salt, chopped chillies, and adobo seasoning. Heat avocado oil in a pan, and cook the eggs for just a few seconds on medium-high eat. Turn off the heat, and fold in half a chopped avocado with lim juice.

    - shrimp avocado salad and lime vinaigrette: Grill shrimp and corn on the grill outside until lightly blackened. In a large bowl, combine shrimp, avocado, cilantro, and corn. For the dressing, combine lime juice, honey, salt, black pepper, avocado oil (olive is great too). Toss with dressing 30 minutes to an hour before serving. Don't let it all soak together for too long in the fridge, because the shrimp and avocado will fall apart :)

    - smashed avocado on ezekiel bread toast with salt, cayenne, and lime.

    I had fried avocado tacos in Austin, TX, and I think about them all the time. Yum.

    -Avocado diced on fried rice or rice with a little rice wine vinegar, an over easy egg, scallions, and avocado.
    -Keep Wholey Guacamole 100 calorie packs in the freezer in case of an avocado emergency. Put on everything.

    Avocados are so versatile, I eat them every single day. One of my favorites is roasted sweet potatoes and half an avocado chopped into a bowl with some pepper and sriracha. Simple and so delicious!

    Count me in!!! I love avocados. I usually mix them with tuna, cottage cheese, or chicken and put a little mild hot sauce on it. This is my go to staple on a daily basis.

    Nice to know I'm not the only one who enjoys avocado with my cottage cheese. ;)

    I recently tasted an avocado for the first time, I have to say they aint half bad.

    What do they taste like...I know it's hard to say what something tastes like but what's the closest thing you can compare it too?...I'm quite funny with tasting new things but really want to give it a try for the high calorie content.

    My favorite thing in the world is my homemade guacamole, which is just one avocado mashed with some lime juice, salt, and cayenne pepper. Sometimes I'll throw in some chopped tomato. I'm not a fan of onions or garlic so I don't add those, but it still tastes amazing to me. I'll throw my guac on everything... it's especially good on grille chicken breast with just a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

    I would never think to put sriracha on sweet potatoes - will have to try it out! This thread is awesome! Book marked. I'm excited to go home to my avocado tonight! I mostly just use them plain or in salads. My world has just been expanded ;)

    I eat avocado several days a week. I go on binges where I will eat them every day for weeks at a time. My favorite avocado lunch is to get a can of low sodium Garbanzo beans and mix em up with one whole ripe avocado. I add a little salt and pepper and a couple tablespoons of nutritional yeast. I am addicted to that combo. I absolutely love it!
    I'm definitely trying this tomorrow:-)
