Snip, I wish you could come here next fall. Every year we go to an Avocado Festival near here and avocado's are celebrated like you wouldn't believe! I've sampled everything from avocado ice cream to pie. Here's a recipe from the festival that I use often and it's delicious.
AVOCADO SALAD DRESSING
1 large avocado peeled, mashed
1/2 c. sour cream
1/4 c. milk
1/4 c. mayonnaise
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp.garlic powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. fresh ground pepper
2-3 drops hot sauce
Mix together and refrigerate several hours to blend flavors.
Thanks for initiating this thread, Snip. What a wonderful treasure-house of ideas for eating avos. I love them cubed into a salad of mixed greens with onion and tomatoes, but I see there are lots of ways that I've never tried. I do make guacamole and like it a lot, too.
Do you leave the seed in any portion that's left over to keep it from going brown?
I like avocados with avocados...I will eat them anyway I can get them. I have two getting ready for me right now.
I've been knows to go to a nearby grocery store and purchase an avacado or two for my work lunch. People around here look at me like I'm nuts. Don't care though. They may be right. But I do love avocados, especially with a touch of lime juice and Tobasco.

I just put one in my lunch...I should chop it and put it in the tomatillo sauce I am taking, but odds are I will just eat it with some Himalayan Pink Salt and a spoon!

You should get yourself one of these Himalayan Salt Blocks, Himalayan Salt Plates, Himalayan Salt Cooking, Himalayan Pink Salt
Getting one or two, one for cooking and one for a plate, is still on my wish list.
I was thinking, "How can it be guacamole with no tomato?", then I realized that guacamole means avocado mole.Another favourite of mine is making a simple guacamole with just avo, lemon, salt and pepper eating it with prawn cocktail chips
Thanks for all the great ideas guys!!!!!!

Prawn Cocktail Chips ... don't have those here. Do they taste like prawns?
