Try using avocado to replace the mayonnaise in egg salad.

Avacado instead of mayonnaise! Why didn't I think of that?

I grew up with an avocado tree too and I love avocados with french dressing. My favorite dish is avocado with grilled cod fish and fresh onions, a little salt and a little olive oil. Yum! Memories!

I just like avocado anyway...for a snack..a warmed flour tortilla, mashed avocado and salsa, roll the tortilla and you have an avocado taco!

I can chicken broth one ripe avacado a little lime and salt puree in blender or food processor . Serve warm or chilled.

Wow...I didn't know that you could freeze avocados. That's a great tip! That pudding looks yummy too. It's a great recipe for those people that can't eat dairy.

This is soooo good! One of my quilting buddies is Celiac so we can all enjoy this as our dessert on quilt day. I make 2 ripe avocado... 1/2 c. cocoa powder... 1/3 c maple syrup.... 1/2 c coconut milk... 1 tsp vanilla and blend it together and even avocado haters enjoy this chocolate pudding!

I've never frozen avocados so should try that tip out, thanks!
