On my facebook page, someone said something about using them with cocoa and stevia to make chocolate pudding. Also, another friend said she likes this recipe better if the avocado is just chopped instead of pureed. So many GREAT suggestions!! Thanks so much!! :)Tonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239079132342501762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573392140119733765.post-88668221755115415702011-06-30T15:08:14.524-04:002011-06-30T15:08:14.524-04:00It is good to be back at last catching up with you...It is good to be back at last catching up with your blogging activities, I love avocado although it has quite a high calorific value I think!

If you use plastic wrap, don't just cover the bowl, but actually tuck it in so it's right on top of the food. We love them, but they can be expensive! I wish I could grow an avocado tree!Mama Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01658505477619300328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573392140119733765.post-49541073176050564092011-06-29T05:11:02.984-04:002011-06-29T05:11:02.984-04:00Gosh, I can't believe you have only just disco...Gosh, I can't believe you have only just discovered avocado. Delicious and versatile, aren't they? When my children were babies, 12 and 10 years ago, their staple food was an avocado and banana mashed together - so portable in a handbag, not processed goo in a jar but simple healthy, nourishing fare and so quick to prep, no heating, cooling etc. Now, no salad is complete without one! They go with everything, are lovely in salsa if you make those or simply with tomatoes and a good glug of extra virgin olive oil,a dash of balsamic vinegar and lots of torn basil - great with fish! Enjoy embracing and experimenting with your new found taste sensation!!<br />Katie xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573392140119733765.post-14779285387755152792011-06-28T22:29:55.158-04:002011-06-28T22:29:55.158-04:00Looks good!

The dip doesn't keep well in the fridge for long, but I read a tip that you can freeze it in ice cube trays and it stay perfect for the next time you want some. I also love it just sliced with a slice of tomato and cheese. Yum. Very good for you!Jaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14634160467371527749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573392140119733765.post-63557850304008818812011-06-28T10:44:11.747-04:002011-06-28T10:44:11.747-04:00I've discovered the avocado recently too.

You DO want a ripe one, and it's not likely to fine the perfectly ripe in the store. I read up and common/best way to ripen the avocado is the brown bag method.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06693715057012440382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573392140119733765.post-15862700345475559622011-06-28T10:41:50.807-04:002011-06-28T10:41:50.807-04:00I love guac...and avocados, too!
