la manzana del invierno


If you couldn't tell, Avocado is one of my favorite foods. I would probably eat it every day if I could. I am of the opinion that it makes pretty much any meal 10x better. Delish! The meal above is from lunch yesterday. It's Avocado, eggs, dill and a tiny bit of cream cheese on a toasted thinwich thingy. I usually like using sour cream instead of cream cheese. I'm not sure why, I just like how it tastes. We didn't have any yesterday though.

The meal below is from dinner a couple days ago. It's egg, some smoked hot dog thing I found and grilled up (I felt like I needed some sort of meat and that's all I could find) all inside a tortilla with salsa and avocado on top. Also: some grapes. It was delicious.


Silly fact: I'm totally concerned about being able to feed myself on my trip. I haven't grocery shopped and consistently fed myself for over a year. That's what happens when you live with your family and they make yummy food for you on a daily basis. I'll have to jog my memory of living in my apartment in college. I recall a lot of ramen, burritos, and bruschetta. And mimosas...

Looks delicious! I like to lay thin slices of avocado on toast, with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, topped off with a swirl of olive oil. It's a very delicious snack. :)

Avocado is the absolute best! I tried these pita bread things a week or two ago and they rocked! Heat some chicken, provolone (and onions if you like) in the oven on some pita bread. Then put on some hummus and mashed avocado. Then add whatever veggies! It was YUM.

Avocado honestly makes everything better. So yum.

Did you know they have NO IDEA what an avacado is in North Carolina? I had a friend a while back live there for a bit, that's how I know. Seriously. No guacamole. I would be so depressed without avacados.

Your tasties look tasty! My personal favorite is toasted sourdough with butter, smoked salmon, poached egg, avacado, and pepper. (If you're not a fan of the fishy smoked salmon, my mom and sister like to marinate the smoked salmon in lemon juice, olive oil, and capers.)

Avocado does make everything better. I usually eat up one avocado every two days and definitely love it as a sandwich topper, especially when splooshed together with some hot sauce!

Myriam said...

Avocados are the bomb-dot-com!!! Even though I'm a college kid living on my own, I still like to splurge on the occasional avocado...especially when they're on sale! I'll keep your treats in mind next time I shop for groceries.

Oh, I remember picking fresh avocados from the trees in my Aunt's backyard in Chile. Those were the days!

my store does NOT sell avocado. I would make my sushi every day if I had it (I have everything I need to make sushi other than that).
