How about some avocado recipes?


BEER BATTERED FRIED AVOCADO WEDGES WITH SALSA

Serves: 4

1 cup lager beer or ale
1 cup all-purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons paprika
2 cloves garlic, chopped finely
2 California avocados
Vegetable oil as needed for deep frying
Salt as needed
1 cup salsa (I PREFER HOMEMADE!)

To make beer batter, whisk together beer, flour, paprika, and garlic until well blended. Let stand at least 2 hours.

Peel avocados; cut each into 6 wedges. Dredge 6 wedges in reserved beer batter.

Deep fry in hot oil until golden about 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining wedges.

Serve 3 wedges with 1/4 cup salsa

Sounds good!
I love avocados. You should have seen the sorry ones they had the store in town the other day. They were shrivled and hard as a rock. Once again I have to wait til I get to Walmart to take care of my craving for them. Our friend makes sushi for me sometimes and he always puts in extra avocado for me.

It's a shame that these stores are allowed to put such pathetic produce out there - and then they expect us to buy it.
I wanted to buy lettuce yesterday - I wouldn't give it to a starving rabbit it was that bad.
When there fresh foods - meats, produce, etc. look bad - I don't buy it - let them eat it.

I have picked up greens at the store here in town that actually had mold growing on them. They used the look at me like I was insane when I insisted they go in the back and get better ones. They were like..your just buying them to feed your rabbit.

I LOVE avocadoes! I put them in soups, guacamole of course, avocado mayo for the best BLTs ever, eat them straight up and I've even been known to make avacado gelato!
