When Yogurt Won’t Do the Trick

I am starving to death! I had to quit myLotting to find something for lunch. I grabbed for the blueberry yogurt and said, “Nah.” Peeking at me was one of two ripe avocados. So, here is my soon to be eaten lunch. It’s avocado toast. I mashed an avocado, ground in a little Himalayan Pink Salt, and toasted 21 grain bread. I’m about to dig in. Want a bite?

I like avocado toast. I don't have any avocados though at the moment.

@snowy22315 Best to stay home. Rainy days aren't meant for shopping.

I didn't have any until my son bought us a few from Trader Joe's last week. Then, I had to let them soften on the counter for several days. With avocados, one has to plan ahead.

YES!!! I want a bite. I'm starving too. I put a pot roast in the crockpot/pressure cooker several hours ago. It's not ready yet. I just had a banana out of desperation. I'm about to look for more but want to wait until the pot roast is finished.

You are welcome to have two or three bites. It was so delicious. I should get a pot roast and do the same as you. Today is sunny, so we will have lamb chops on the grill.

@just4him That sounds delicious. I'm sure your pot is just doing its thing. I think I will make baked potatoes with sour cream and my fresh garden chives before the potatoes go bad. I have a choice of fresh broccoli or Brussel sprouts to go with it. Such decisions!

@DianneN Now my mouth is watering. I love lamb chops. I think I did something wrong with all those buttons on my new crockpot/pressure cooker. It's now making noise so I know I'll have pot roast at some point today. I threw a potato in the microwave. I just heard it beep. I'll add some Lite Vidalia onion dressing to it. I tried that a while back and it's delicious.

Oh yes please! Although I just had sourdough with peanut butter (not quite lunch here yet). I bought some avocado yesterday but they are not ready to be eaten . . . they're sitting on the counter!

@DianneN Really? Hubby got me hooked on sourdough with peanut butter years ago . . . we gobble that stuff up. I want to plant an avocado tree . . . might not fruit for years though .

@much2say I will definitely try it now. I trust your good tastebuds. I wish I could have my own avocado tree here, too, and a fig tree. Oh, well.

I love sourdough bread, but never tried it with peanut butter. Will give it a try. Yes, my avocados had to sit on the counter for a few days, but they're certainly ready for eating now. Good fat and delicious!!!

That looks tasty to me. Lately we've been buying avocados and subbing them for mayo. We make tuna avocado sandwiches for lunch.

@DianneN Any time you think you need mayo, just sub in an avocado. Potato salad would be great with avocado in it.

Oh yum! Avocado toast is a favorite of mine! I am going to make fresh spring rolls in a bit--thai rice wraps around avocados, cilantro and tofu with a little peanut sauce--easy to make and yummy! Enjoy your toast!

There are so many ways to enjoy it. My son turned me on to eating it this way. Usually I have it in a salad, in an omelette with shrimp, in guacamole, or on hamburgers. How do you use it?
