    Avacados!!!

    I just want to say I AVACADOS!!! It is the easiest, tastiest, side dish ever. As long as I have some kind of meat ready to go I can have lunch ready in seconds.

    Re: Avacados!!!

    Avocadoes would be the perfect food if they: A) were cheaper, and B) didn't take so dang long to ripen!!!! I can't wait!!

    (Just bought 3 for like $2/each, and they won't ripen for a week or so )

      I grew up in southern California with an avocado tree in our backyard. My mom use to make us eat them year round nearly everyday. So I haven't had one in about 10 years! Maybe I should try again...

        I buy avocados at ALDI grocery store - they are .79 each and ripen on the counter in a day or two. I grew up eating them so when I found out we could eat them on Atkins I was so happy

          I'm so jealous... We don't have an ALDI around here.

            I have a hard time judging them on when they are ripe. Somtimes they look perfect to me, I open it up, and yuck, not good

              I have also been eating avocados ... a little chicken salad or crabmeat salad with one and I am in heaven.

                i make a "stuffed avocado" and oooooh is it freakin' awesome:

                2/3 cup crumbled feta cheese (or goat cheese)
                2 small ripe tomatoes, chopped
                1/2 red onion, chopped
                2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
                2 tablespoons olive oil
                1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
                1 teaspoon oregano
                2 large avocados, halved and pitted

                1. Mix all ingredients, except avocados, in bowl.
                2. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
                3. Spoon into each avocado half and serve.
