Avocados

Avocado Nori Rolls

Happy last day of February! To send the month out with a bang I am sharing a second super easy snack that includes my beloved avocados—California Avocado Nori Rolls. Part of why I love these so much is because I can cut up a bunch of veggies at the beginning of the week, put them […]

Did you know that February is National Snack Food Month? In honor of all you snack lovers out there (and I stand among you), I thought I would share a couple of snacks that I developed for California Avocados to close out the month. Today I’ve got these Avo-Nana Oatmeal Snack Bites for you. I’ve […]

My in-laws live in Draper, Utah, a city just north of us. Every summer they have Draper Days, an event that lasts for about a week in July and is filled with everything from a children’s parade, to a rodeo, to evening concerts in the park, followed by fireworks. It’s a blast. This past July we […]

Remember that Grilled Corn with California Avocado Crema that I told you about at the beginning of the week? Well I promised you a plant-based (vegan) version and today I’m delivering! With summer winding down we have got to take advantage of all the wonderful produce, including corn and avocados! This version replaces the crema […]

If you happen to be grilling corn for Labor Day tomorrow, might I suggest that you make it even better with the addition of some California Avocado Crema?

In addition to pulled pork nachos, another dish I fell in love with while living in Memphis was red beans and rice. Today I’ve got a quick and easy version for you that would be perfect served as part of your Labor Day eats. This version includes fresh chunks of California avocado for added pops […]

I just realized that a bunch of my recipes have been posted over on The Scoop and I didn’t know! So get ready for some California Avocado recipes coming your way! I love working with California Avocados, not only because avocados are one of my all-time favorite foods, but also because they give me great themes […]

Avocado Pesto Dip . . . another reason to have a good pesto recipe in your wheelhouse (and I’m biased because I think you should use my Pistachio Pine Nut Pesto recipe that I posted yesterday). The awesome thing about this dip is how easy it is to make. Pesto + avocado + a bit […]

We are having a ton of family come over, including my brother who is flying in from Washington. I can’t wait!! We plan on making a fire in our fire pit in the backyard for roasting hot dogs (and s’mores later, of course!), cooking burgers and veggies on the grill, and having a variety of […]

I have always loved the croissants stuffed with chicken salad that always seem to be served at baby showers or other luncheons, so I decided to come up with a fresh twist on them and whipped up a chicken chickpea salad, including some of the normal ingredients, like halved grapes and creamy mayo-based dressing. I […]
