    Cut it in half. Remove the pit. Then pour a little soysauce in the cavity and eat it with a spoon.

    I don’t do anything fancy. I toast wheat bread and put some avocado as if it were butter. Makes for a good snack and it's healthy fat unlike butter.

    On sandwiches, in place of mayo
    On salads, when I want something a bit creamy
    In (homemade) guacamole. Yum!

    When I was younger, we used to eat it by filling in the seed's hole with ketchup or salad cream with a spoon.

    I now like it mashed with a tin of tuna, chopped dill and tomatoes. Depending on the calories I have, I'd eat on toast, ryvita or lettuce leaves.

    'Cado Salad!
    Large dice avocado with equal part diced tomato. Add one thinly sliced green onion and a tablespoon of chopped cilantro (optional, if you really hate it).
    Shake together the juice of a lime, equal part (extra light tasting olive) oil, pinch of salt, pepper, cumin.
    Toss all together.

    Does not suck. Good with a minced jalapeno too, if you like a little heat.

    Avocado is like a condiment to me. I plop it on everything.

    With a spoon.

    I usually season it with pepper and sometimes I'll put tahini with hot sauce in the middle where you take the pit out

    I'm planning on eating avocado a few times a week (maybe everyday!) I just had my first raw avocado (don't laugh) I had it on toast with cream cheese and sesame seeds (soooo good) but, I had the full avocado, and 2 pieces of bread..it was a lot at once so next time I'll just eat half lol

    Anyways, what are other good ways to eat avocado? I'm trying to get more ideas so I can switch things up :)

    If you can get some of the sweeter varieties, like Tonnage (usually available in Sept), say, you can make avocado desserts. They are not uncommon in a few South American countries, where you'll see avocado treated as a fruit much more than in the USA. One I know of is simply mashed avocado, lime juice, and sweetener, to taste - but it just tastes odd with avocados that are normally available in the USA. But you get some of the less common varieties that are more seasonal, and you can sometimes find sweeter avocados and they are AMAZING like this.

    also some interesting raw food desserts with avocados coming out now, like avocado key lime tarts, chocolate avocado pudding, and so on. Taste surprisingly good. But...also make finding older, traditional recipes online nearly impossible. :-/
