Avocados were dirt cheap so I bought more than I can eat my usual ways. Anyone have any favorite recipes using avocado? Bonus points if it's freezable....

I enjoy this one, but I need more: http://www.eatingwell.com/recipe/252724/super-green-edamame-salad/

    I have a friend that adores avocado pickles. She's kind of a freak, but for what it's worth, here's the recipe :smile:

    I like to mix them in hashes or stir fry, I but I recently mixed them with scrambled eggs. Not bad!

    This looks delicious. I usually just fry them in a lil' bit of oil. https://gimmedelicious.com/2016/01/20/healthy-baked-avocado-fries-chipotle-dipping-sauce/



    Also, I do this:
    1 avocado (mashed)
    16g PB
    15g baking cocoa
    Pyure to taste

    Like a Reese's mousse. Or replace the PB with sour cream for a lower cal version that's just chocolate.

    Eating an egg baked in half an avocado right now - I throw the halved guy in a little bread pan, crack an egg into the pit dent, season and bake about 15 min at 400 F.

    cube. freeze. get out what you need to mix into rice, makes it really creamy and risotto like. Season italian (with garlic, lemon, oregano) or Mexicali (cilantro, lime), Thai (basil, coconut) or whatever you like!

    I've always been a fan of the Mexican avocado salad.

    On a saucer, Place long sliced avocado slices, with halved grape or sliced roma tomatoes, Long Sliced sweet bell peppers, Horizontal sliced pickled jalapenos...
    Drizzle the pickled jalapeno juice over the whole thing and garnish with fresh cilantro. maybe add sweet Mexican oregano if you're so inclined.

    well if you arent too worried about calories, avocado mac & cheese is amazing : https://www.twopeasandtheirpod.com/stovetop-avocado-mac-and-cheese/

    my other favorite pasta with avocado is : avocado + sunny side up egg or two + soba noodles (spaghetti would work too)+ onion + garlic and some mushrooms if you are a fan of those

    This is my favourite easy thing to do with leftover chicken. I skip the tortilla chips and the vinaigrette.

    I like to make chicken avocado salad - mix mashed avocado with shredded chicken breast, add salsa if desired plus salt, pepper, etc. Serve on toast, salad greens, or enjoy as is!

    If you have a Trader Joe’s near you, pick up their “everything but the bagel sesame seasoning” - putting that on avocado is A-Mazing!

    I love avocado but hate using it sometimes because it goes bad so fast. Anyone have any ideas of keeping avocados fresh in salads and such?
