Taking pity on the orphaned avocados

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to some strange panic buying (how many toilet rolls do people really need?) but also to some unexpected gluts. Apparently there's an oversupply of avocados here in Australia as many cafes and restaurants are closed or operating in takeaway-only mode. While avocados are cheap and plentiful, I've been buying them! My absolute FAVOURITE ice cream recipe is avocado, lime and ginger ice cream (and you don't need any fancy devices to make it).

Other fun things to do with avocados include:

avocado salsa wraps
avocado macaroni cheese
rocket salad with pears, blue cheese and pecans

or you could serve it alongside nachos or just as good old-fashioned smashed avo on toast. That's what we ate for lunch in lockdown today.

Enjoy ;-)
