🥑 Avocado Recipes
Avocado is nature's butter — rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, fiber and potassium. Half an avocado adds creamy richness to any meal while delivering 10 grams of fiber and 7 grams of healthy fat. These avocado recipes go way beyond toast.
Recipes with avocado
Avocado in every meal
Breakfast: avocado toast with a poached egg. Lunch: avocado in a chicken bowl or tuna wrap. Dinner: sliced over a stir-fry or taco bowl. Snack: guacamole with vegetable sticks. Avocado fits into every meal because its creamy, mild flavor complements almost anything. It adds healthy fats that help your body absorb fat-soluble vitamins from other ingredients.
How to pick and store avocados
Buy avocados firm and let them ripen at home on the counter for 2 to 3 days. Ripe avocados yield slightly to gentle pressure. Once ripe, store in the fridge to slow further ripening — they last up to 5 days. Cut avocado browns quickly, so squeeze lemon juice on the exposed surface and wrap tightly. For meal prep, add avocado right before eating rather than storing it pre-cut.
