I love avocado - I eat it almost everyday (sometimes twice). Here's an easy recipe for savory avocado mash. I often eat this yummy spread on a toasted english muffin or multigrain toast. First, the avocado has to be ripe, but with no brown spots inside. How do you know? Give the avocado a light squeeze and if it feels soft, it's ready to eat. I keep avocados in a porcelain basket on my kitchen counter and as soon as they appear to be ripe, I move them to the refrigerator - ripe avocados will keep longer in the fridge. To cut an Avocado, simply cut all the way around the pit, gently pull the two halves apart and squeeze the pit out or use your knife to pull it out.
While still in the skin, use your knife and cut a grid of 1" pieces. Use a spoon to remove from the skin. In a small mixing bowl add 1 - 2 ripe avocados and 1 - 2 tbsp of seasoning (to taste). I love the Old & Vinegar Store Guacamole Salsa seasoning. It's savory and adds a lot of flavor to the avocado. Guacamole Salsa Seasoning Ingredients..
Gently combine the avocado and seasoning. Don't pulverize it - you wanna keep the texture chunky. This is not a creamy avocado recipe. Put in the refrigerator and let it cool a little. Spread a thick layer of savory avocado mash on a toasted english muffin (my favorite) or toasted multigrain bread. I usually prepare and top the avocado with sautéed mushrooms, spicy chickpea stew and/or an over-easy fried egg. BUT, the savory avocado mash on is yummy on it's own. Spicy avocado mash on toast is a quick, delicious and a healthy breakfast or mid-day snack. It's also a great addition to a club sandwich. View my Supreme Club Sandwich recipe below..
