avocado
I absolutely love eating an avocado almost on a daily basis. Guacamole anybody? It sure is a staple in my house. Avocados are native to Puebla, Mexico. The curious thing about avocados is that as a fruit, they are not high in sugar. Seriously! Avocados are high in "good fats".
My daughter loves to use avocados in smoothies. She even told me about avocados she used to make brownies. Now, that's interesting.
Avocados are sometimes called "alligator pears" because of their appearance. These odd looking fruits have 20+ vitamins and minerals in each fruit. For example, they contain folate which is needed for cell repair especially during pregnancy. They also contain lutein which is necessary for good eyesight, and many others.
