hi,
any good recipes for avocados that do not taste or have the texture of avocado?
I love avocados, but my hubby doesn't so i have to disguise them in curry sauce or chilli.

thanks

I just did a wonderful, FILLING, smoothie. Took an avo, banana, water and a squirt of agave and blended it. Less water = pudding. More water = smoothie. Other folks have used this avo/naner base and added spinach, or mint, or cilantro, or whatever. I did a chocolate one the other morning.

Alissa's avo pudding is good. I bet you could take her spinach dip recipe and throw in an avo and have a creamy spinach dip...

They are very versatile and soooo good for you.

Can't he just not eat avocados?
I mean, if you're eating the same meal, couldn't you just put avocado in your portion but not in his?
Is it that you think he needs the fat and calories?

thank you Veganforlife for the smoothie answer, we do like smoothies, and the banana, avo combination just made sounds good. I will look again at Alissa' recipe.

HolyGuacamole, he just doesn't like avos, but although yes I could just leave them out but the nutrients in avos are really good so i don't want him to miss out on them.

best wishes

I'm pretty sure alissa's "refried beans" use avacados....and they are fantastic!
