First introduced to avocados on toast when we moved to CA in the early 70’s. I really enjoy acocados and many morninggs, have half of one, sliced, along with scrambled eggs, raisin bread toast, fruit and a cup of coffee. Trader Joe’s sometimes has bags of small avocados and when I have those available, an entire one is on the menu. Good nutrition, good fat, but remember, they are high in calories, so if watching your caloric intake, adjust accordingly.

Ever since I saw this thread early this morning, I have been singing a sweet, lovely, lilting, little song — in my head:
”How Are Things in Guacamole?” — Surely, you know that song. I think it is from Finian’s Rainbow. — If you do know the song in my head, I bet I just stuck it in your head, too. You’re welcome. And, now, I have a question for you avocado experts. How do I choose the perfect avocado? Last edited by Boomer; 04-04-2018 at 02:36 PM. |

Avocado toast has been on our table for years. Usually because had one going too ripe and it was a quick breakfast or lunch.

Avocados do not ripen on the tree; they ripen or “soften” after they have been harvested. To speed up the avocado ripening process we recommend placing unripe avocados in a brown paper bag with an apple or banana for two to three days until they are ripe. We do not recommend any other method of ripening. Commercially sold avocados are usually Hass avocados. Hass avocado - Wikipedia I have an avocado tree in my yard which I bought at a nursery 20 years ago. It produces a lot of avocados but they are rather tasteless (perhaps it is a Fuerte, not a Hass) so I buy mine at a store. lol

Ohhhhh, tom, I just got it! Luv it! Thanks for playing.
Also, manaboutown, thank you for taking the time to answer my question. I was serious about that. I know how to sniff a cantaloupe for perfection. I know how to check a grapefruit for heft that translates into juice that makes it worth getting squirted. (I always put my glasses on first though.) I know how to ripen peaches and juggle apples. But avocados have eluded me — so far. Now, I know. |

I rarely eat it at home, though--I save it as a dining-out treat. Too much healthy fat is still too much fat for my particular metabolism.

I do not have the recipe but my mother incorporated pieces of avocado and slices of grapefruit into a delicious Romaine lettuce salad. This thread reminded me of that. Bet my daughter has the recipe!
My favorite sushi is a rainbow roll which contains avocado slices. Yum!

Coffee and toast. I like my avocados with crushed ice and condensed milk. Is that weird?

That depends. Are you pregnant?
