How To Cut Open An Avocado

How To Cut Open An Avocado…

I will never forget the first time I saw someone (as much as my pride doesn’t want me to admit…my husband) man- handle an avocado. It was genius, and I have used this simple technique ever since. Not only is it super speedy, it is efficient, mess free, and no squishing of the avo has to take place!

1. Slice all the way around the seed starting at the tip

2. Twist halves in opposite directions and pull apart

3. Whack the seed with a knife so it sticks and Twist 180 degrees.

The seed is stuck to the knife so go ahead and whack the knife handle on the side of your garbage can and let the seed dart into the trash.

5.  Take a knife and crisscross slices down each half.

6. Spoon out into a bowl

Voila!

Tip: to prevent avocados from browning, immediately toss in lemon juice.

Avocados are packed with all sorts of nutrients and antioxidants. Click here to learn more about Avocados.
