What else can I add avocado to?

Asked by evolverevolve (520points) July 1st, 2009

I always put avacado on my salad and burgers and just love to eat them, but I am looking for something simple that I can put avacado on, like crackers or something easy, cause I always have a bit left over and they spoil quickly. Looking for suggestions….cost effective suggestions

Mash up what you have left with some salsa and enjoy your guacamole with chips or crackers. Avocado is also great in omelets. Bacon always works very well with avocado be it in omelets, sandwiches, salads, etc.. One of my favorite sandwiches is tuna, avocado, and bacon on sourdough bread. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm…wtf (my initials)

Bacon, lettuce, tomato, and avocado sandwich. You will not be sorry!

Guac actually works best here.

I usually can’t make it far enough to put the avocado on anything. Once I cut it open, in goes my spoon. By the time I realize what happened, there’s no more ‘cado… :-(

Last night, I had a whole wheat pita stuffed with Cajun turkey, zucchini, diced tomato, mustard, and added some avocado & S n’ P to it. So good…

A California BLT, which is bacon, lettuce, tomato and avocado on toast. Delicious.

My tuna melt recipe. Spread tuna salad on two pieces of bread. Cover with thinly sliced avocado, and then cheese. Put under the broiler until the cheese melts.

I totally agree with wtf about avocado and eggs, a match made in heaven. Two of my favorites:

a BTAC omelet (bacon, avocado, tomato, cheese. A dollop of sour cream on top is wonderful with this.

I also like to dice avocado, scramble it with eggs, and then just as the eggs are set fold in cubes of cream cheese.

Avocados are beyond amazing.

I would say avocados are good with any kind of sandwich. Also, you might want to try making an avocado smoothie.

Ooh, there is a sandwich shop nearby that does a pastrami sandwich with avocado. Mmmm…

This thread is making me hungry.

On another note, I’ve always been fascinated with using avocado as a mock-sweet food. Alton Brown did a show where he made frosting with avocado, and there are tons of recipes for mock-chocolate pudding using avocado. I think it sounds really good, has anyone tried that kind of a thing?

Avocado + cheddar cheese on crackers is a great snack.

You guys seriously made me hungry – thank goodness I just bought 2 aguacates yesterday!
