Embrace the Sweet Side of Avocados
Avocados are a great combination of taste, texture and healthfulness. They are always great for the ever-popular guacamole or sliced and used in tacos or salads. But there is a sweet side of avocados to consider. Their creamy, mild flavor makes them perfect to give a nutritious boost to sweet treats.
Keep in mind that avocados are fruit when you use them in this rich, sweet dessert. Chances are your family or friends will only notice the creamy chocolate and never realize there is a super food hiding in these brownies. Add some spice and top with coconut for a tropical vibe or just stick with pure chocolate, says Twin Cities chef and cookbook author Robin Asbell, who created this recipe for Real Food. With National Avocado Day upon us on July 31, the time is ripe to celebrate this super food.
