A Delicious Gift from God

What’s not to love about avocados? They might be the most delicious super-food in the world.

Healthy snacks that my kids like are sometimes hard to come up with.  One thing that has proved to be a favorite is avocados. Avocados, like many fruits and vegetables, amaze me. That you can walk up to a tree, pick a fruit, cut it open and enjoy it fascinates me. Avocados are creamy, light, and delicious.

The possibilities are almost endless.  Some ways we like to use them:

  • Guacamole – mashed with garlic salt, chili powder, splash of lemon and salt
  • Sliced on sandwiches and burgers
  • Diced and served with eggs, sliced tomatoes and toast
  • Served with chips or crackers
  • Eaten with a spoon

Unfortunately they are expensive but sometimes we can find them for $1.00. I picked some up and we enjoyed them the good old fashioned way.
