Avocados from Chile. The Perfect Ingredient.
Packed with nearly twenty vitamins and minerals, avocados are nature’s perfect ingredient for living well. Each serving — about one third of a medium-sized avocado — is loaded with a healthy variety of essential vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients, including vitamin E, vitamin C, folate, magnesium, potassium, iron and lutein. Avocados are also a good source of dietary fiber, a key ingredient for digestive health, weight management and lowering cholesterol, making them a fun-loving, heart-healthy snack or addition to any meal. Plus, there are more ways than ever to make avocados extra-amazing, with tasty new recipes that everyone can enjoy, together, solo or out there on the go.
For avocado purists – eating half a plain avocado sprinkled with lemon juice or your favorite seasoning is all you need. Try a little paprika or balsamic vinegar for an added twist. Spread an avocado on toast for a rich and velvety, cholesterol-free topping. Find out how avocados stack up against other spreads. Even one avocado can make a great snack with chips or veggie sticks, and diced or mashed fresh avocados make one fantastic dip.
Sliced in salad they are spectacular. Create your own avocado salad and salad dressing or try some of ours. And of course, for any main — from bacon, lettuce, avocado and tomato sandwiches, to lush avocado burgers or wraps – avocados add creamy flair.
