Is avocado a wonder fruit? Apparently there are millions of people who swear by its ability to keep them in tip-top shape. And yet, growing up I was never really introduced to avocado. I'm not entirely sure why. But now I'm slowly but surely adding it into my daily (well, monthly) eating routine, and these easy, yummy dishes really help.
Avocado is my new favorite food. While I was still in the making-myself-like-it phase, which is why I turned to these alarmingly easy ways to use avocado as starting points. I was honestly getting a little tired of simply throwing avocado in salads or slicing it up on toast and I wanted something a bit more interesting.
Avocado soup you question — yes, avocado soup and it's actually really good. But my favorite new use for avocado is by far avocado fries! Of course, anything breaded and fried is more delicious and avocado is no different.

I'm loving the idea (and the recipe) for avocado pasta. I will be trying this very, very soon.
OMG! I remember having soup with chucks of avocado growing up. It was so decadent. The little morsels of avocado really made the dish.
Wow! I have had zucchini in this fashion, but never my favorite avocado. did not even know one could do this. Thanks! It sounds unbelievably scrumptious.
Avocado+salt+red chilli powder+dash of lime = great afternoon snack
Avocado on toast, salt&pepper. Or a fancy green wrap - spread generously avocado on tortilla, add some favorite cheese (i do pecorino romano) arugula and some sunflower seeds. Wrap it tightly and enjoy.
What could be more alarmingly easy and delicious to eat than avocado?
Avocado Tempura is also divine. Or try avocado fries with panko breadcrumbs.
Avocado fries are new to me. I just simply peel, add a bit of salt and eat...like I would a mango.
i love adding it to quesadillas and i'm a huge quacamole fan - kinda boring i know. these are very interesting ideas though, especially a soup!
I mix avocado into scrambled eggs, eat it on toast, use it on salads, and lots of other ways.
My mom is actually making an avocado pasta tonight (Giada recipe) and it sounds delicious.
