What to do with to many Avocados…..wait really?  Be Creative.

 

 

Is there such a thing?  Well when you buy the bag from the big box stores sometimes you end up with a few extra avocado which you have to find uses for before they are totoally overripe.  Overripe avo's don't look very appetizing on salads.   I like to add them to my AM shake.  It gives it a smooth finish and a nice creamy taste.  I also love to make Avo crema and add this to tacos.  This is a great topping for pretty much anything.  See my recipe below.

 

 

Here are a few benefits to Avo’s:

 

  •  Avocados are a powerful brain food due to containing high amounts of vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids
  •  This food contains monounsaturated fat, a type of fat that is healthy and necessary. A cup of avocado provides you with approximately 30% of this type of healthy fat per day
  •  Fiber is important for your digestive tract because it keeps things moving and bulks your stool
  •  It also helps to prevent spikes in blood sugar because your body does not quickly metabolize it

 

 

Avocado Crema


 

I love to recreate recipes from restaurants I go to.  There is a blackened fish taco at the yardhouse.com which I love and can’t help but order each time I go.  This is one element of the dish which can be used in so many other dishes.  Top it on grilled meats, spread it on sandwiches or use it as a dip.  For one of my favorite healthy recipes I make fish tacos in lettuce cups and top with this awwwwsome crema.  You can also thin it by adding more citrus or even water to make a salad dressing.  Add about 2 tablespoons at a time until desired consistency.

1/2 avocado
