In my opinion, avocados make everything taste better. They are one thing I never leave the grocery store without. There’s a textural element they provide that’s hard to find elsewhere. Basically, I’m willing to eat avocados on just about anything and everything.
Not only are avocados totally delicious, but they’re also extremely versatile, to boot. They make almost every salad and grain bowl better. You can eat them on toast. Use them as a topping for soups and chilis. You can even use them to bake. On top of it all? They are such a great source of healthy fats. For all of the avocado-lovers out there, we’ve got you covered with these 30+ avocado recipes.
