If you read TSC then you know I’m all for easy, healthy, quick snack ideas. This isn’t the 1950’s where women have hours to cook. I mean, OMG, who has time to whip up a piece of seasoned salmon and an organic vegetable medley with a side of lentils? Seriously. Unless you’re Martha Stewart, the easier/healthier/quicker, the better.
So on that lil note, this probs isn’t the right blog for someone who’s looking to cook beef wellington or fresh baked bread. Unless it’s an occasion, I’m keeping it simple, stupid.
Anyway.
Let’s talk about avocado. An avo a day, keeps the doctor away. Like, if avocado were a guy, I’d marry his ass. The fruit ( yes, it’s a fruit ) contains so many sexy health benefits ( to name a few: tons of Vit E, lowers cholesterol, prevents breast cancer, & is fab for the heart ) + they’re absolutely delish. I’m literally addicted.
Examples of easy/quick ways I eat a daily avocado: on rice crackers, out of the shell with salt & lemon, fresh guac, on top of pizza, in salads, smoothies, &/or with cottage cheese. Today I took pics of how I ate him: on low carb toast ( Oasis is my fav ) with Meyer lemon, a slice of tomato, a dash of salt, & a sprinkle of cayenne pepper.
Bam! The best snack evs.
For Sunday’s big football game substitute some low carb crackers to make this snackie poo as an appetizer. Your boytoy will be in heaven.

Fun fact: Avocado has the most potassium of any fruit/veggie/meat. It has about 3X more than a banana
I love avocados! They are the best fruit ever!! I am definitely going to avocado on low carb toast for lunch today (:

OHHH I love me some avocado! I’ve been trying to eat one a day..but those little suckers are at least 1 euro here in Germany. I usually just mix my avocado with a little bit of garlic salt. I hate to have the salt/bloat…but it’s DELISH!
Do you have any tips on ripening avocados? I’ve let two go to waste because they stayed hard as rocks for over 2 weeks!

I love avocado and that’s honestly my favorite way to snack too. I add half an avocado to almost every breakfast and definitely with salads. It’s seriously the best fruit (eaten as a vegetable) out there…

I wish I had more money to buy healthy food …
That looks completely yummi and I’m a big fan of avocados too !
Ever since I ran across this little piece of heaven on toast Ive literally started to eat it everyday <3 yummers!!!
I love guacamole but can’t seem to eat plain avocado. What do I add to plain avocado to make it more palatable for me to throw in salads and such?
I was in love with this recipe even more because I like toast, thanks for sharing this recipe!
