Oh I would devour all of this meal including the tea.  

@Buenita- I love this too and I actually measured my avocado by grams because I always thought there was too much fat and I was wrong. 1/2 a big avocado was only 64 grams weight so I may be eating this more! 

I keep seeing toast with avocado and have never tried it. Is it actually tasty that way? I know i know i could just actually give it a try and i do LOVE guacamole but sadly i love guacamole till it’s all gone. I remember going to Cabo and they have the BEST guacamole and we sat on the beach with our feet in the sand while they brought this enormous tub of guacamole and i ate every bite. I dont even want to think about how many 1000’s of calories but was so yummy. Hubs doesnt like avocados so was just me. And fresh hot unhealthy chips. Oh my such a good memory. 

The key is to get the avocados that aren’t the size of a football. 1/2 a normal size is about 100 cals for 50g. I like mine with a little salt and a ton of black pepper. 

@YOH- I have always had avocado's on toast since I was a child. My grandparents lived in California for a bit where my mom was born so it was passed down from my mom's side. My husband also did a lot of work in Mexico and the natives there would call it Mexican butter! I love the sounds of eating guacamole with my feet in the sand in Cabo. I would probably have a Margaritta though! LOL 

@Katslo- Yeah I like the medium sized ones and usually at our store they are the large Hass avocados. I just recently started measuring in grams after reading an article that it is more accurate so I was surprised. I like just salt on mine but honestly have never tried with pepper too. I will have to try that on one bite!  

Can I join you RPL 😁 Feet in the sand, guac & margaritas....sounds great!  

Years ago my sister turned me on to 'waffle bread'. I eat bread slowly, so I keep it in the freezer which can be a nuisance when you want a sandwich. SO good popping it in a hot waffle iron and either making a sandwich or just like a waffle! Super easy go to when time is short and delicious.  

Tonight with dinner I had an entire medium-sized avocado with two ounces of fresh lemon juice and a packet of stevia/monk fruit sweetener. It tasted like desert to me--so delicious.  

I copied you. Thanks for reminding me to eat my avocados. 

Love avocados 🥑. Looks good! 

@SherreB- Yes! YOH got me going on the feet in the sand! LOL  

@trailingthesun - What is waffle bread?? The Ezikiel bread I buy is frozen already so I get out two slices for my avocado toast. My mom always bought english muffin toast. Ohhh that was so good but I hate to see what the carbs are in that!  

@Gopherit1 - That sounds good! I love new ideas. 

@SG - I bet you have some great ideas on what to do with avocado's! 

If you mash a hard boiled egg in with the avocado, you get extra protein. And a slice of tomato on top. With some Tajin or hot sauce! :-) 

@lil- what a great idea. Breakfast tomorrow!! Thanks! 

Delicious ! 

Fiesta!! 

Who is Ezekiel (Jewish)?
