Guest Ph0en1x Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Hi Tony I adore Avacados, they are extreemly good for you they are a great source of vitamins A, several B-complex, C, and E, as well as phosphorus and magnesium. They’re also a great source of antioxidants like vitamins E and C as well as Sodium and potassium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newjez Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I love advacardos - just make sure they are ripe - nothing worse than an unripe advacardo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conniebygaslight Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Gorgeous on toast with salt and pepper. The Avo's that grow on my inlaws trees in Oz are the best I've ever tasted....one thing I miss about Australia! They taste even better without the extra D though lol x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LKC Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Avocados are yum! I like them chopped up in to small chunks, diced tomatoes, finely diced red onion and fresh coriander all mixed up in a bowl, then a bit of olive oil, some lime juice, garlic puree and chilli mixed up as a dressing with salt and pepper and drizzled over the salad. I also like them mashed up with salt and pepper and a few prawns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudi Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I absolutely LOVE avocado! If I am out, I always try and order food which has avo in it!! Love Rudi x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exile Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Avocados are awesome. But as some people have said, they must be ripe and you must put black pepper on them. edit: they are quite fatty though. I know people say "its good fat", but if you eat too many, that good fat will still go straight to your arse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parley Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Notice quite a few of you writing advocado. Is that a typo or is it really spelt than way in the UK ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
