I know western people usually associate avocados with savoury dish but they taste good with sweet stuff as well. South east asians use avocados in a lot of our desserts.

It's the same in Brazil, people usually eat them with sugar or do some sort of milkshake.

i googled "avocado recipes that aren't guacomole" and this was the first result https://www.buzzfeed.com/sherrihall/23-amazing-avocado-recipes-that-arent-guacamole-1x9mm?utm_term=.ik9wwZ7rym#.iqaooPZD0y

Just use it as a side for other foods if you're lazy, it pairs with pretty much everything.

Slice them and them along with some salad as a side dish or as an ingredient for something simple, like a sandwich. You could also try to make avocado ice cream or smoothie like >>10667541 mentioned.

>>10667575
>BLTs
yes

I use them for
>guac
>sandwiches
>slicing up, adding salt, and eating plain with a fork
>guac again, but this time as a topping for burritos

>>10667525
based fukushima avocados

I fucking hate every tingle one of you

>>10667525
cut em in half, and eat with tuna salad, shrimp salad, crab salad, or just plain mayonaise

>>10667525
put a slice in your sandwich

eat with plain salt or salsa

THOSE ARE NOT AVOCADOS
WHY IS NOBODY SAYING THIS

>>10669490
Shhhh let /ck/ pretend to know about food

>>10669490
They're "fat free" avocados

>>10669490
because they are!

Avacado+carrot rolls. Dip it in some soy sauce, it's pretty good. You could fry some tofu and add it to the roll as well.

>>10667525
Peel of the skin until only the white inside is showing, then score the surface with a knife all over too peel off long, thin strips like strings. Repeat until all that's left is the innermost seed casing. This stuff goes great in salads. Thai style "giant sweet green avocado" salad uses fish sauce, fresh ground chilis, green beans, cherry tomatoes, peanuts... Use whatever you want. Pound that shit to bruise and partially mash the ingredients, but take it easy on the "giant sweet green avocado" strips. They only need slight bruising so they can absorb the spicy dressing a little and release more of their own flavor.

>>10667525
If they're underripe you can make Mexican slaw
Cut them up instrips while underipe
Cut up white cabbage
Carrots
Onions
Cilantro
Mix a vinagrette made of white wine vinegar, lime juice, black pepper and cumin seeds
Mix that into slaw

Use them the same way you'd use butter/cream in a recipe.

god damn those are huge

>>10671151
How long does that shit last? I like avocado but I never buy it because there's a 13 second window when it's good to eat

>>10669490
you do realize there are multiple varieties of avocado just like every other plant/fruit?

>>10669490
They're the kind of avocado that grows in Florida.

>>10669490
What do you think they are, mushrooms?

>>10671655
Obviously

>>10671736
Oh.
I thought they might be pawpaws. Guess I haven't really seen a fresh papaya in a long time.

>>10671769
google results seem to conflate the two, though American pawpaws are just plain different

Make ice cream out of it. I made it once and it taste bretty gud

>>10667525
In awe at the size of these lads.

>>10672209
Florida avocados are larger than Hass avocados, bong

I'm kinda jealous of those
avocados in western yurop are smol and expensive desu

but anyway, if I don't eat them with some toast I either them use them in a salad like pic related or in something warm like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5txQMLb4gPE which amazingly simple and quick and filling and it's go-to thing when I don't feel like actually cooking but I have the stuff to make that
really anything I make with avocado is super basic and simple because they're already very filling

>>10672312
I've found that they often have some fibrous material in the "meat" of the avocado, making them less pleasant when making guacamole.

>>10667595
>buzzfeed

>>10667525
How do you hold all of these avocados?

>>10671736
What kind of avocado is this?

>>10667525
Buy a house.

Avcacado Soup

- Tomatillos
- Garlic
- Onion
- Jalepenos
- salt
- Avacados
- Lemon (zest)
- Chicken stock

Dice onions and garlic.
Lightly cook the tomatillos. Just heat and soften on the oven. mixed with onions and garlic

Scoop out some avacados. Like, 3? Those are big ones. Maybe 2. Mash em up. Put them in the blender. Add chicken stock. Mix. Toss in Tomatillos from pan, along with chopped jalepenos. Add stock as necessary for thickness.

Salt and everything god I'm tired.

I have a VitaMix so it mixes until it's hot. Just dump it into a pot and heat it until warm / hot, stirring regularly.

Serve soup in bowl, top with avacado slices. Add lemon zest.

Enjoy or call me a fag. I'll live with either.

>>10667525
Eat them. But not the skin and seed. Just the flesh.

>>10667572
I'll give you a recipe within 30s if you post your girl titties

>>10667525
You can do a lot with avocados.
Also, I think they mean 'testicle' in the native language.

-green eggs and ham (mix in w eggs)
-slice thin, pair with cucmber slices, mix cooked medium grain white rice (i use kokuho) w/ rice vinegar, sugar, water, salt to make zushi rice. spread rice on seaweed laver sheet, arrange avocados and cucumbers parallel to the axis of rotation in a line. Roll. Boom. No more paying 7 bucks for mediocre rolls from the local Nipponese restaurant.
-Chop in half, remove pit, sprinkle salt, pepper, lime juice. Eat straight out of the skin with a spoon like the monsters we are.
-Blend with silken tofu, dr.chung brand soy milk (A or B is fine), ice. Add in flavorings, toppings to your liking. If you introduce enough air into it, you can make ice cream out of it.
-Add slices on BLT's. Adding a dash of balsamic vinaigrette helps cut through the richness of the avocados.
-I've used them in the place of small tofu cubes for dishes that don't require heating after I add them, like bibimbap. Put a fried egg on top if you want to go full Ajumma

>>10675115
I've got testicles, actually. But they're not the same thing.

>>10671639
>that 61 year old millennial that thinks all plants and fruits have multiple varieties.

>>10675139
most of them do. get off of 4chan and read a book, for christ sakes. most of the plants and fruits you eat are already selectively bred variants of older species that initially were less bioavailable.

>>10675120
“ahuácatl” is where the word comes from, you dumb fuck.

>>10675187
>that 11 and a quarter year old war baby who doesn't understand the meme

I make wackamole. It's hot guacamole.

>>10675187
>read a book
What fucking book would you suggest?

>>10675189
What does your minder think about you letting yourself lash out like this? Don't you remember what you've been taught about behavior?

>>10675226
stay mad, brainlet
>>10675229
Concise Encyclopedia of Crop Improvement: Institutions, Persons, Theories, Methods, and Histories. If you don't have the cash, just read about the history of selective breeding in horticulture online. Kinda cool to see how something as basic as corn used to look like a shriveled diseased finger before it was bred over millennia to be fucking edible.

I like people like you. You know people do it yet you still think your inability to detect a joke is their problem. Every time an image like that gets posted, it's like admitting to your own stupidity. It's nice. It's cute.

>>10675243
I actually looked at a sight today that was talking about that. I believe it was in another thread where someone asked why eggplant is called eggplant.

Kind of how banana flavored candy doesn't taste like banana, but it actually does. The species of banana used for the flavoring is now extinct.

>>10675252

>>10675247
Do you really think I really thought you were saying an avocado is the same thing as a testicle? I don't get it.

>>10675257
english isn't your first language, is it, ahkmed?

>>10675120
is this supposed to be a joke?

The texture of avocados makes it a little hard for me to eat

>>10675120
you must be fun at parties

>>10675302
It used to be like that for me. It kind of felt like...wet butter?

I love it now. I can eat them like apples, after I peel them. Which is kind of disturbing, but I don't do it in front of people so it's alright.

>>10675028
Thanks a lot, faggot

>>10675187
>reading books for instruction at the age of wikipedia

Eat'em raw

>>10667525
I halve, slice, and have them with salt, lemon pepper, and hot sauce

>>10671398
if you mix it with an acid it prevents oxidation (turning brown), which is why I always put lime juice in my guacamole
