    homemade quacamole.....

    mash avacado, add:

    tomato
    cilantro
    vidalia onion
    lime juice
    jalepeno pepper
    a bit of salt
    garlic

    not sure of measurments, I just kind of put it together and taste test and add more of something if I feel like its missing.

    super yummy!

    Mash 1 avocado and mix with chopped tomato, cilantro, lemon or lime juice, onion, garlic, salt and pepper, and then use it as a sandwich spread, just 10 gm, about a tsp is 18 calories and enough to flavor the sandwich and also give you some healthy fat which you need

    A little extreme, but it makes a great raw pudding. Puree with agave, cocoa camino, coconut oil and vanilla, chill for a great vegan/raw treat.

    I usually just mash and eat on toast in the morning...
    you can look up recipes for guacamole too.. If you google "how to eat an avocado" it will give you all kinds of idea.

    I don't eat bread or chips, so for a snack, I put salt on them (having that right now) and eat them by the slice. I also like to put them on a grilled chicken breast instead of mayo or ketchup (which I also do not eat). My husband puts them on top of his sweet potato.

    I don't really care for avacado except in guacamole and sushi, so those are the only options I have to offer.

    Yum - just mixed up tuna with avocado yesterday and couldn't believe how delicious it was! Also added a little onion and shredded carrot to the mix. I love avocados!

    I eat it with salt, on toast, or pore fresh salsa on it and eat it like that or with crackers

    Hi,

    In each half of the avocado put in prawns. For a healthy sauce use organic natural yoghurt mixed with lemon juice and tomato ketchup--gives a prawn cocktail taste without the added calories

    It's sooo amazing! Also tastes heavenly with guacamole. You cut one piece of cooked bacon in half, smear a little guac on one piece, and eat it like a tiny sandwich of love.
