LO loves avocado and so do I. I'm a bit short on ideas though, he usually just ends up eating slices alongside cherry tomatoes and such. Any suggestions?
-
My guy used to love it in a sandwich, alone or with some cream cheese or egg or hummus. Or you could make a basic guacamole (without the chili) and he could dip things in it.
-
It's yummy spread on warm toast (even better if the bread is whole wheat). Mmmmm!
-
.....cut it up with some fruit (Strawbs, Rasps, blue berries are our fave....) and mix it with yoghurt~Yeo Valley Natural is delicious!...... ;D ;D ;D
-
Mash up and make a dip, maybe with some cream cheese and as your LO is older, maybe make a guacamole with tomato, coriander (cilantro), some mild chilli and lime juice? Would be good in quesadillas too.
-
Mashed with banana is great and would make a good dip/spread too!
-
Yes - someone mentioned avocado and banana to me yesterday.
-
I haven't tried this one as I am really *basic* when it comes to food and am unsure of the combo, but, apparently avocado & chicken/sliced ham is rich in a sandwich if your willing to try that one? ;D
-
I have to say I have a fondness for avocado, cheese, mayo and sun-dried tomatoes in a sandwich. Which probably even richer than your suggestion!
These all look good, thanks! Avos probably off the menu now, given the season, but some tasty stuff to look forward to.

I had avocado slices on a pizza the other night for the first time ... it was deeeeelicious! It goes a bit tougher and tastes really nutty! I've never cooked it before, but this was great!
-
That sounds amazing... will definitely try it.. thanks!
-
You could put it in a quesadilla or mash it up into a guacamole and serve as a dip alongside? http://mamacook.blogspot.com/2011/05/quesadillas-ok-for-adults-12-months.html
No need to completely exclude chilli at this age IMO, unless they really hate it.
-
Ooops! Sorry, just realised I made the same suggestion earlier up! Well now you have a link lol!
-
But I haven't tried him with chilli yet so it's a good thing you reminded me, Lemon! You're obviously keen on the quesadillas....
-
Well it's easy! Also my son went through this big aversion to sandwiches stage and quesadillas were an easy alternative.
-
my kids loved it with banana as babies on BLW....Oscr then went off it for YEARS literally as with everything else green but now is fine with avocado as a dip or sauce of sorts on a quesadilla or tortilla etc etc...

Went down really well in a wrap with mashed avocado and grated cheese today!

Mashed with mango and frozen makes a geat sorbet-like treat!
