Avocado: 5 Recipes featuring the creamy fruit
updated the 6 October 2015 à 23:02Avocado isn’t just for guacamole and smoothies. Find out what else this versatile fruit can do.
You’re missing out on a delicious lot if you think guacamole is the only thing avocado can make. Soft, rich and creamy, this fruit native to Mexico and the Americas is a great way to add flavour and substance to any dish. They contain a high amount of fat, but it’s the good kind of fat you want –monosaturates, which help you loose belly flab and relieve your digestive system.
While the fruit can be enjoyed on its own, spooned or nibbled whole, their true flavour comes out when it’s given a supporting role in main dishes. What’s more, this vitamin E powerhouse can be enjoyed by vegetarians and vegans alike.
The culinary possibilities of avocado stretch as far as the chef’s imagination, and in our gallery, we’ve rounded up 5 of the yummiest avocado recipes that will have you stocking up these shapely fruits on a weekly basis.
