These delicious snacks, quick and simple to prepare, can be eaten throughout the day: Avocado on Toast - 1 slice of oven-baked bread per person
(again choose bread made from preservative-free unbleached plain white flour) - 1/2 avocado per serve
- 1 dash tabasco sauce (optional)
- Sea salt
- Cracked black pepper
Toast bread, slice avocado neatly and place on toast, season with sea salt & cracked black pepper. Variation: Serve avocado on rice cakes for a quick and simple alternative.
Guacamole (Avocado dip) - 2 ripe avocados, peeled and stones removd
- 1 ripe tomato chopped (optional)
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 1/4 red onion, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon coriander and/or parsley, chopped
- Cracked black pepper to taste
- Chilli or tabasco sauce to taste (optional)
Mash avocado and combine with tomato, garlic, onion and herbs. Season with cracked pepper and a few drops of chilli or tabasco sauce. You may add a little lemon juice to prevent the avocado from oxidising too quickly. Serve with vegetable crudite (carrots, celery sticks, raw broccoli, cauliflower, etc.) and/or rice chips.
