As you know, I am obsessed with avocados…I just love ’em! This week, we will be sharing two avocado recipes. you can check the Spicy Avocado Cucumber Soup too
California avocados are an ideal ingredient (especially in the summer) and loaded with nutrients. This green fruit provides ~20 essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. One really cool thing about avocados is they act as a booster of nutrients. Fat-soluable nutrients in other fruits and/or vegetables are better absorbed when eaten with an avocado, as avocados are a great source of healthy fats.
I like to keep things simple in the kitchen – easy and quick recipes. Avocados are so versatile and great with any meal or as a snack. I decided to utilize the nutrient dense fruit to create a breakfast recipe. During the work week, I pack my breakfast and take it to work, but on the weekends I like to make a hearty breakfast for my entire family. I just love breakfast sandwiches and thought a California avocado would be the perfect ingredient.
