This Recipe is Downright Hass-ome!

Avocados are beloved for their buttery texture, mild to the pallet taste, and multiple uses, but they are so much more than a scrumptious snack! While avocados have a high calorie count (one avocado is 320 calories), the various nutrients and healthy fats make it a must-eat.

Some call the avocado the alphabet fruit because of all the vitamins it contains. One avocado provides your body with vitamins A, C, E, K and B6, along with an enormous amount of potassium. 

Fun Facts: Avocados are commonly referred to as the Alligator Pear because of their scaly skin. Did you know that approximately 53.5 MILLION pounds of guacamole is consumed every Super Bowl Sunday?
