A relative gave me some avocados: she cannot eat them for health reasons at the moment. I have never prepared them before, so do not know what to do with them! I know you have to make sure they are ripe first. And I have eaten them before in guacomole! But what else can you do with them? Do they go well with anything? Should they always be mashed up?

How about guacamole?It's made from ripe avocados. And depending on the recipe can be yummy. * 2 ripe Fresh California avocados, seeded and peeled * 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice * 1/3 Cup diced tomato, seeded and well drained * ¼ Cup chopped green onion * 2 serrano chiles, chopped * ¼ Cup cilantro, chopped * ½ tsp salt 1. Cut avocados into 1/2 inch cubes. 2. Stir in lime juice. 3. Fold in remaining ingredients. 4. Guacamole is best made as close to serving as possible.
