Recipe FAQs

Adding lemon juice to avocado is the perfect way to keep it from going brown. This is because the acids in the lemon juice slows down the enzymes that are responsible for the browning. An added bonus is that lemon juice tastes great with avocado, as the sharp citrus flavour goes perfectly with the creaminess of the avocado.

There are plenty of ways to eat avocado, but here are some of our favourites:

As guacamole
Slathered on toast as a quick and easy breakfast food
As a creamy addition to a salad sandwich
With toast, eggs, bacon, mushrooms and spinach for a big breakfast
As an ingredient in our deliciously fresh avocado cheesecake
As a topping on your favourite burger

Avocado pairs incredibly well with tuna, adding a silky creaminess to your sandwich, salad, or pasta dish. As an alternative to mayonnaise, avocado will give your tuna sandwich, salad, or pasta a fresh twist. The perfect lunch combo!
