10 Avocado Recipes

If you have not known it already – but avocados are good for you. Rich in omega 3 acids – the good kind of fat – plus a bunch of essential vitamins and minerals, avocados lower blood cholesterol levels, and reduce the risk of heart disease. But the best thing about is still the taste! Smooth, flavorsome – there is nothing as delicious as avocado slices, with a dash of salt, black pepper and drizzle of lemon juice, on top of your morning toast! But there are so much more you can do with avocados – choose any from this list of 10 avocado recipes. Ditch out your old and boring guacamole, and experiment!

Why? Because when you combine two foods already super delicious on their own, the result is mind-blowing! This silken, distinctively chocolaty mousse is an evident proof.


  1. Fudgy Avocado Brownies

Because apparently everyone has gone kind of crazy with paleo (including me), and so far I have not met a single person who would not enjoy a slice of brownie.


  1. Avocado Hummus

What is there anything better for dipping than hummus? Guacamole? Wrong! The best is hummus with guacamole’s essential ingredient – avocados!


  1. Pasta with Avocado Sauce

10 avocado recipes Pasta with Avocado Sauce


I am guessing you would not normally put avocados in your pasta – Italians don’t do it after all. But as much as I love Italian cuisine, they don’t have a vote in this one – mashed avocado, lusciously creamy and flavorsome makes the perfect accompaniment of your spaghetti!


  1. Avocado with Gorgonzola

Oh, and one more thing about Italian cuisine – have you ever tried Gorgonzola? Veined blue cheese, pungent, salty, and utterly delicious. Goes extremely well with delicate taste of avocados!


  1. Devilled Eggs with Avocado

Talking about favorite food combos – avocados pair great with eggs; eggs of all kinds. Omelets, scrambled, poached – but deviled eggs with creamy avocado filling are easily the best!


  1. Avocado Basil Quick Bread

How much do you like avocado toast? Too much, like you can’t get enough of it? And how much would you like having avocado slices on top of… avocado bread? Can’t imagine? Go for this recipe!


  1. Avocado Dressing

10 avocado recipes Avocado Dressing


Salads are easy, healthy and quick lunch options. There is just one drawback – essential part of every – any – salad is the dressing; and there is no better dressing to fit your chicken/ tuna/ salmon/ feta/ goat cheese/ etc. salad than mashed avocado, spiced up with jalapeno, garlic, lime and cumin (by the way, ever tried grinding some cumin seeds in your guacamole? Do that, like now!).


  1. Cucumber Avocado Soup

10 avocado recipes Chilled Avocado Cucumber Soup


I am a sucker for soup. Honestly. Chicken noodle soup might a bit too much in summer, but this chilled cucumber avocado soup, on the other hand, will be perfect. Pour into bottle, shake with some ice cubes, and drink on your way to the beach.


1. Avocado Smoothie

I don’t often drink smoothies, but when I do, I make sure, they’ve got avocados in them. Not only do they give a nice texture and amazing taste – you just look at that beautiful color!
