Question

with avocados....something like a green salad with avocados in it....

Answer 1

I like putting the slices on sandwiches and grilling them. Or making an orzo salad with spinach and putting some avocado chunks in it with a lemon or Italian dressing. Or just eating them with a spoon!

Answer 4

I love 'em. They are great on sandwiches (try some slices on tuna sandwichs or one made with leftover Thanksgiving turkey, and sooo good on hamburgers), and I've been known to even just eat them as is with only soy sauce.

Try this with pita chips or tortilla chips:
INGREDIENTS

* 2 plum tomatoes, chopped
* 1 ripe avocado - peeled, pitted and chopped
* 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
* 1 clove garlic, minced
* 1 tablespoon snipped fresh parsley
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1 tablespoon red or white wine vinegar
* 4 ounces crumbled feta cheese

DIRECTIONS

1. In a bowl, gently stir together tomatoes, avocados, onion, and garlic. Mix in parsley and oregano. Gently stir in olive oil and vinegar. Then stir in feta. Cover, and chill for 2 to 6 hours.
==============

Here's a salad dressing made from avocados that is great, but I always thin it down some with some milk, use feta cheese instead of blue, and add a dash of chili powder:
