This weekend has been a mixed bag of weather. There have been some showers, some strong breeze and some sun shine too (which is good). When the weather starts to get good, I really start to crave avocado. It's just such a wonderful, summery thing to eat and goes with so many different things.
Okay...I'll admit that I actually eat avocadoes...like...all the time. They are probably my favourite vegetable (fruit? vegetable? who knows?) and I get through several in a week.
One thing that I will say though is that I've got into a routine recently of just smushing it up, mixing it with some coriander and spreading it on toast. Which is great, but variety is the spice of life.
So I have done a round-up here for you folks with some of the yummiest things to do with avocado.
Enjoy!
- Spiced Chicken Tacos with Avocado and Pomegranate Salsa (note, this is an American recipe and what they call cilantro is actually coriander)
- Quinoa and Avocado Salad. (I discovered quinoa a few months ago and have since been putting it in a lot of my lunches to fill me up!)
- Sweet Potato, Avocado and Feta muffins. (yes please! Sweet potato is another one of my favourite things!)
- Avocado, Kale, pineapple and coconut Smoothie. (I have never tried to liquidise avocado, but after reading this recipe I strangely want to!)
- Avocado and Egg Breakfast Pizza (I think this would be really nice with a na'an or some sort of flat bread rather than pizza dough first thing in the morning, but yum none the less!)
There you have it, some of the yummiest avocado recipes out there. Try them and let me know how you get on! Do you have a love affair with avocado? Let me know.
