    A kale/tomato/avocado salad is sooooooooo good! http://kidtestedfirefighterapproved.com/2012/02/06/kale-avocado-salad/

    ETA: and baked avocado fries! Crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside OMGGGGGG http://diana212m.blogspot.com/2011/10/baked-avocado-fries.html

    Guacamole, too. I could eat a gallon of guac with chips! Nice and garlicky, please! Or on sandwiches, or in egg salad, or in a burrito or any other way I can finagle it. I just wish avocados weren't so expensive here, like $1.50 each!

    If I ever forget I have one cut (a rarity, I assure you), I like to mash it up and put it on my face. Seriously. It's a great moisturizing masque. Do that after a honey/oatmeal scrub and your face will thank you for days.

    You guys got me seriously avocado-crazy now.

    Not about avocados you should be careful but about potatoes. LOL!!!

    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?

    Nice chopped up and cooked with tofu and a little sauce, or I just chop it up and have it with cottage cheese.
    It is packed full of nutrition and good fats, so I don't tend to worry about eating too many, although I only have maybe a couple every few weeks as I like to have variety from day to day.

    Halved, Cored, Little lime. garlic puree, onion powder, pepper.... OMG my favourite....

    OR ON......UMMMM ANYTHING!!!!!

    Still haven't found a great way to store the other half, i douse it with lime juice, and get most air out of Ziploc, and that seems to be ok for a few hours, but as for the next day, not so much... And I don't always want to eat a whole avocado, although I know I could afford it...

    Any storage suggestions?

    I love in any salad combo, especially with light hidden valley ranch and the fresh express santa fe torilla strips. And definitely on any turkey burgers or chicken sandwiches!

    I like to cut it into 1/4 servings. I use 1/4 and spread it on my flat bread and add a dash or two of salt. Then I lay my turkey meat out, slice tomatoes, onions and sprouts and roll it into a wrap. Yummy lunch. Low calorie, Fills me up and satisfies me.

    With a spoon. Otherwise it gets all over me:laugh:

    yup. spoon, salt. 'nuff said.

    ^^^^^THIS!!! My favorite way is straight out of the rind with a little salt. I slice it in the rind with the backside of a butter knife (doesn't cut through the skin!) and spoon it out. I could eat two or three a day, but I try to limit myself to one, cause of all the fat in them.
