This week we are working our way through 2 kg boxes of avocados and
mangos as they were just $12 a box. We had to wait a week for them
to ripen and now we have to have at least one each a day before they spoil. We are really enjoying them but will probably not have them
again for a long, long time!
We have too many avocados as well. Not quite that many but still have around 5 or 6 to get through and I'm already sick of them. ;)
I use them in guacamole - which is a nice dip for snacking. Also in my
pico di gallo salsa fresca (another style of dip) or even in place of
mayo on a bacon-cheeseburger. Bv)=
I've never had so many as to make them off-putting. But there have been
times when I have wound up with *plenty* or slightly more.
