I have to be careful about these, I could easily go overboard and eat them in every meal of the day and as a snack... but usually I eat two a week...half an avocado at a time.

Today I sliced some and put it on a baked potato with reduced fat sour cream and shredded cheddar. It was SOOO so good!

So how do you like you avocado?

    Someone posted a recipe which was basically pureed avocado with cocoa and agave...it was interesting. I bet if I worked on the recipe a bit, it would be good.

    On top of toast with Vegemite spread on top. Salty and creamy! You can also put Vegemite on ryvita crackers and avocado on top. yum. I like the B vitamins from Vegemite/Marmite. And I'm not Australian! :)

    I love avocado!!

    I made a recipe a few months backs that was half an avocado with shrimp and a vinaigrette over it all. It was so good, too bad I can't remember where the recipe came from.

    I like pouring 2 tablespoons (gotta watch those calories!) of dill dressing into the pit hole, and just scoop it out with a spoon. YUM! Now I want some avacado! :)

    Guacamole is my favorite, but I also eat it out of the rind with a little celery salt. I have even added it to protein shakes!

    I'm vegan so I make this all the time as chocolate mousse. It's delicious!
    I puree it in the blender with some cocoa powder, melted dark chocolate, agave syrup, some vanilla extract and a sprinkle of cinnamon. You can't tell the difference between this and traditional chocolate mousse.

    I've made this one, but with honey and vanilla extract. It was pretty tasty.

    Usually I just eat my avocado with a spoon :)

    Avocado Pesto...add some fresh basil, little bit of olive oil, clove of garlic, salt and pepper, throw it all in the food processor...warms up with some whole wheat pasta added to a bowl and is delicious!

    Good to know someone likes it. I saw a recipe but it made me nervous.

    I love it in salads, with eggs and in place of mayo. Really any way.

    Halved. Still in the shell baked with a slice of cheese on top. It's more of an indulgence.

    I LOVE chilled avocado salad. Avocado, black beans, brown rice, tomato, green onion, olive oil, rice wine vinegar, and oregano. So refreshing and delicious.
