I just had a hankerin for avocado and decided to try an easy salad.
Chunked up avocado and tomatos with olive oil, balsamic viegar, splash of lemon juice, fresh basil, course ground sea salt and pepper...
It was out-fucking-standing!

I can't say I've ever run across an avocado thread on GD before, much less on how to gay it up.

I just made guacamole and a salad with some avocados on it.

Brianna's homestyle dijon honey mustard dressing says on the bottle "deliscious on ripe avocados" and its no lie. Give it a try.

Avocado is Spanish for lawyer, right?

McAlister's Deli, if you are lucky to have them in your area, make a killer turkey sandwich with avocado, bacon, blue cheese, tomatoes, and some other goodness.

I was going to say something sarcastic, and then realized you didn't add any lettuce.

Good man!

Why does ARFCOM have the prevailing opinion that enjoying nice/finer things is something a man shouldn't do? Reeks of adolescent insecurity....

Avocados are great. Good fats.

I take mine sliced with a small bit of sea-salt and balsamic vinegar drizzled over top.

Avacados are great plus you can turn them into guacamole!

People always bring up the fat angle with avocados, but it isn't animal fat, so isn't it okay?

Still 9 calories a gram. No one recommends to drink a cup of vegetable oil a day.

There's nothing wrong with the fat in avocados. It's all the other fat and carbohydrates you eat in a day in addition to the avocados.

Instead of blu I would use crumbled Mexican goat cheese.

Thanks OP, I know what I'm eating Friday!
