Avocado
Options
I never really liked Avocado's, except the only thing I've ever tried was the Avocado spread that my fiancee made
It almost tasted spicy, I just didn't like the taste.
I bought two Avocados yesterday while grocery shopping. I'm going to attempt to make something or prepare it and try it again.
Does anyone have any recommendations? Recipes? Etc?
Please and Thank You!

I like to toss one in a food processor with a cucumber and a packet of ranch dip mix and dip my other veggies in it instead of dip. Or just eat it with a spoon. LOL
A small cucumber....or half of one.0 -
My husband loves avacados. When they are on sale I will buy 5-8 and make a big batch of guacamole He can eat them by themselves but I can only eat them in the form of my version of guac0

I cut one in half, then fill the middle with tuna, and a bit of celery for some crunch.0

I like to smash it up and spread it on a hamburger instead of mayo.0

I make guacamole and eat it with eggs or bell peppers. or chips
I smash up the avocado with a fork, squeeze in lemon juice, mince some garlic, dice some onion and tomato. mix it all up. it's the best.
ETA make sure they are a little soft to the touch before you use them. Mine are usually hard from the store and need a few days on the counter to be ready0 -
I think avocados are one of those foods you either like or don't like. My mother and sister slice them and put them on toast with salt and pepper. I like them mashed with salt and pepper on toast, hamburgers, chips, tacos, burritos, etc. I saw someone the other day who said they use avocado in their tuna instead of mayo. I haven't tried that yet, but I'm going to. It sounds good.
But you might just have to face facts. You might not be an avocado lover. And that's OK!
Edit: You could also smash up an avocado, add some lemon juice, olive oil, lime juice, salt, pepper, etc, to make a dressing for a salad. That would be delish!0 -
I never really liked avocados either. But I will eat them if I sprinkle on some garlic/onion powder and put them face up in the toaster oven.0

Believe it or not but just eat an avocado and add a pinch of salt. Best taste in the world.
At least for me0 -
I recommend trying them as kind of a salsa if you have never liked them before. I didn't like them as a kid but now I eat avocados every week they are great for creating a sense of fullness without the guilt. Try this...chop up a couple slices of onion, some tomato, and half an avocado. Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a spice like red pepper flakes, or cumin, or even seasoned salt if you like. Then squeeze some lime or lemon juice over the top and give it a little toss with your spoon. You can try it with some tortilla chips, or if you like fish it is really good on top of salmon.0
