Any way they come. I love avocados (especially the Hass ones).I know this fruit gets a bad rap with it's high fat content but it's actually so good for you!
It's one of my all time favourites and it's so darn tasty!
Are there any avocado lovers on DC?
My favourite way is just cut in half, sprinkled with lemon or lime juice and some flaked or coarse salt.
I also enjoy it mashed with a dash of vinegar, salt and cracked black pepper. Served on toasted bread with lashings of real butter!
Mashed avocado is great between 2 slices of buttered toast with a fried or poached egg and some relish or salsa. (A little bit of crispy bacon won't hurt either )
How do you enjoy this humble fruit?
Yes they do have a lot of fat but most of it is good fat of the sort that lowers "bad" cholesterol and raises "good" cholesterol and they are bursting with vitamins. I was once told that they use them for weaning babies.
I tend to think that the goodness in them outweighs the calories and I defy Slimming World rules and make an advocado a "free" food.
