Re: Avocados can cause sexual prowess

Not an avocado fan. But I am a guacamole lover. I need to get a good easy recipe to use.

Re: Avocados can cause sexual prowess

Would you believe I've never had one? Just 2-3 days ago I bought one to try it. It's still sitting on my counter, untouched because I don't know what to do with it!

Re: Avocados can cause sexual prowess

I like guacamole to be alittle chunky. This is how I make mine:

3 avocadoes
1 jalapeno pepper (or more depending..), minced
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 garlic clove finely minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons chopped tomato
juice of 1 small lime (about 2-3 tablespoons lime juice)

In a bowl, combine the lime juice and the onion and garlic. Mix and set aside while you are preparing the avocados, jalapenos, tomato and cilantro.

Prepare avocado by slicing it lengthwise (like in Heidi's pic). Using a butter knife, slice lengthwise slices through the flesh, then make horizontal slices. Don't slice all the way through the skin. Use a spoon to scoop out the cubes, put in the bowl with the lime juice-onion mix. Lightly mash a third of the avocado chunks, but leave the remaining 2/3 chunky. Stir in the remaining ingredients.

Serve.

I also add avocado slices to salads, like a green salad with tuna or chicken.

Sounds great! Thanks! Bummer I just came from the store I could have made this tonight.

Re: Avocados can cause sexual prowess

I'm not saying avocados aren't sexy. I'm just saying that their historical association with sex was/is not sexy. The ancients believed that foods resembling sexual organs gave them sexual prowess. Even though humanity has evolved past this kind of primitive belief system (to an extent), I see nothing wrong with redefining the sexiness of the avocado in some other way. The sexiness of the avocado in a modern context.

Avocados are sexy. Period. Their ancestral context is moot.

you know to me there was a reason people believe what they believed back then ...I mean seriously look at an avocado..then eat one ...then choose ...

I find most food that resembles a sex organ also has a feel and taste to it when you eat it defines another level of sensuality that is directly related to carnal pleasure...so those guys back in the day ..could be right I bet when they looked at the avocado for the first time..tasted it ..felt that pleasure and their eyes rolled back in their heads ....he moment was lost .. and because it looked like it did and tasted like it does and the sensations were such....well need I say more


and let's not even comment on oysters today

Re: Avocados can cause sexual prowess

They are great mixed into hollandaise sauce. My 'recipe' uses 1/2 a jar of Maille brand hollandaise and 1/2 an avocado. I just mash em up abnd mix. Really nice on chicken, and good with eggs and bacon too. The whole shooting match only comes to about 8 carbs, and my DB eats most of it, I have about 1 or 2 tablespoons, tops.

"A" for artichokes! When Catherine D'Medici married one of the Henry's of France, she brought with her crates of artichokes and totally scandalized the entire French court because artichokes were thought to increase female libido.

OK Megs you know I love me some artichokes ...and if you want to expend calories while eating ..each leaf slowly ...and watch each other
