Avocado meal for 1

DianaMattos

So I am on my own tonight, have no more loner meals in the freezer and a glut (5) of avocados that are ripe.

What can I do with these? I'd rather not use tuna as I am pregnant and have eaten a lot recently, but my tired brain would love some other ideas!

Thank you!

Delia has a nice recipe which I do a slightly lazier version of. You lay the sliced avocado over the base of an oven dish then layer leftover chicken mixed into a not-too-strong cheese sauce over it ( the full recipe involves making the sauce half with milk and half with chicken stock with a little bit of sherry stirred in). Add some breadcrumbs or grated cheese over the top and bake until golden. Nice with rice

Hi Diana,

I love them in a warm salad (green leaves, diced oven roasted veg tossed in a honey and mustard dressing, and croutons) drizzled with balsamic vinegar and eaten with crusty bread.

There's an earlier thread with lots more ideas that may help:

too many avocados! help!

I'll add this thread to that one later to keep the suggestions together.

I have them with a baked sweet potato but I'm sure a normal one would be nice. I mash the avocado, add a little lemon or lime juice and some chilli, sometimes a chopped tomato. I have this on the potato with a couple of rashers of bacon or crisped up parma ham and a drizzle of sweet chilli sauce.

MMMMMMMMMM!!!

You could mash one up and spread it over your tummy. Good for the stretch marks and no-one there to laugh!
