That avocado pic is nice. Wish I could find avocados that look like that. Seem I always get one that are to far gone and over ripen fast cause I just done eat them fast enough. I'm gonna try to better with that. I live in Florida and I have only seen Haas and Florida avocados. Haas are smaller but are they both equally good for you? Are there any other kinds?

Thanks for the recipes! Read a recent article on the "fountain of youth" study done by Harvard research on mice. Mice with big amounts of NAD in blood stream whether two months old or two years olds, they could not distinguish the tissues between the two different age groups. advocados is mentioned as a potential precursor source of NAD that could be eaten.

Great share @food-trail one of my favorite ingredients in salads, dips and dressings. I love cutting up an Avocado and drizzling it with XVOO , kosher salt and pepper for a between meal snack. I could eat them everyday! - Chef Mickey
