    Amazing Avocado Pudding! (I found this recipe on a blog and have twekaed it to our liking)

    8 medjool dates, pitted
    1/2 cup water
    3 medium avocados, pitted
    1 cup coconut milk
    2 TBS agave or brown sugar
    5 to 7 tablespoons cacao or cocoa powder
    2 teaspoons vanilla
    pinch sea salt

    Place the dates into your blender and cover with the 1/2 cup water. Pack the dates down if needed so they are covered, for the most part, in the water. Let soak for about 30 minutes.

    Then add in the remaining ingredients and blend until very smooth and creamy. Depending on your blender, you may need to add a little extra coconut milk or water.

    Pour into small bowls and serve as pudding or pour into popsicle molds and freeze for at least 6 hours.

    Strange, but SOO yummy and healthy! :)

  25. Beth says:

    I have two fave ways to use Avocados- first as a last minute addition to turkey swiss omelets to add even more creaminess and flavor, and second in my favorite sandwich of all time, the Salad Sandwich.
    Take two pieces of lightly toasted whole grain bread. Spread with mayo, mustard, whatever you like best. Sprinkle spread bread slices with seasoned salt or seasoned salt substitute. Layer sliced avocado, sliced tomato, sliced cucumber and lettuce. Put together and enjoy all the best of summer in one sandwich! You can do a plainer veggie sandwich, but the avocado makes all the difference. It turns into a much more luxurious sandwich with the addition of avocado. Try it sometime, while home grown tomatoes are still in season, or use Roma tomatoes!

    I have never made a recipe with Avocado because I love to eat them plain with Yogurt. I also like them on a sandwich with sliced tomatoes.

  87. Hey there,
    here’s my recipe!

    We do burrito night sometimes, and most nights to make it easy, we go vegetarian.
    It’s a “recipe” we made up in the early days of marriage:
    Black beans
    Corn
    Avacados From Mexico
    Salsa
    Sour Cream
    Cheese

    Super easy–the beans and corn were from cans and everything else we usually had on hand.
    This would go great in a taco shell, too, I’m sure!

    These Quesadillas have avacados and olives inside for a tasty crunchy and cheesy delight!

    10 (6 inch) corn tortillas
    2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
    1 (2 ounce) can sliced black olives

    2 avocados – peeled, pitted and sliced
    2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce

    Directions:
    1. Heat a large frying pan or griddle over a medium heat. Place one tortilla flat on the frying pan. After 1 minute flip the tortilla over. Sprinkle a little more than 1/4 cup cheese on the tortilla, followed by some olives, avocado, and hot pepper sauce. Place another tortilla on top to make a sandwich. Cover the quesadilla with a lid. After one minute, flip the quesadilla. When the cheese has melted on the inside, remove the quesadilla. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

    2. Cut the quesadillas into triangles and serve.

    My favorite guac recipe is adapted from Alton Brown’s recipe. Everyone RAVES about it.

    Ingredients
    3 avocados, halved, seeded and peeled
    1 lime, zested and then juiced
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
    1/2 teaspoon cayenne
    1/2 medium red onion, diced
    2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
    1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
    1 clove garlic, minced

    Directions
    In a large bowl place the scooped avocado pulp and lime juice and zest, toss to coat. Using a potato masher add the salt, cumin, and cayenne and mash to your desired consistency (I leave it a slightly chunky). Then, fold in the onions, tomatoes, cilantro, and garlic. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour and then serve.

    I do vegetarian tacos
    Zatarans Black Beans and Rice Mix
    Avacados
    Tomato
    Red Pepper Flakes
    Mexican 3 Cheese Shredded Cheese
    Taco shells
    Just cook the black beans and rice as directed on the package and pile on the rest of the ingredients to taste. You can add in any other ingredients you prefer.
    The avacados and tomatoes are good for you, It’s easy, and vegetarians don’t have to miss out on all of the taco goodness. I make them when I make regular meat tacos for my family.

    My favorite recipe is quite simple. just take 2 avocados, add chopped onion, cilantro, tomatoes, a small amount of lime juice, and a bit of sea salt. If you like it spicy, you can add a sliver of habanero pepper (very hot) or jalapeño (mildly hot).

    I like guacamole topped with salsa and served with tostitos.
    Here is how I make my guacamole (I think I learned this from Betty Crocker Book) Mix 3 large avacados pitted and peeled, 2 tsp lemon juice, with 1/2 tsp hot sauce continue mixing until consistency is reached.
