Avocados From Mexico are an excellent choice because they are evergreen and always in season, which means that when you buy them at your local store they will be always fresh and delicious.

Avocados are also a good option because they contain good fats and zero cholesterol to enjoy the good times in life.

You might be wondering how I can know if the avocado that I am purchasing is ready to eat? Very simple. If the avocado looks green and is hard, you will be able to eat it within three days.Ā Just make sure to keep it at room temperature. If the avocado looks dark green and it is firm, this is perfect for slicing and also for the aguacates stuffed with shrimp salad recipe that I am suggesting today.

If the avocado is dark green and yields to gentle pressure, this is excellent for mashing or for other applications like dicing and for adding to your salads and smoothies. I personally love to use ripe avocados for baking chocolate brownies by replacing the butter with avocado, as well as for making for sweet puddings paired with pineapple and coconut.

Using Avocados From Mexico is a great alternative. Add avocados to your dishes for color and a creamy texture knowing that aguacates contain naturally good fat to enjoy good foods, good times, and good fun with good people year round.Ā Avocados From Mexico are my favorite avocados because they are grown with heritage in mind and are cultivated with attention to detail reflecting that positive, fun, and vibrant feeling that avocado lovers like me enjoy.
