Fried Avocado

If you miss bacon—don’t worry, we’ll get through this together—then a fried avocado will give you that greasy, fatty, salty flavor that you’re missing at your vegan breakfast. We’re not going to waste your time with a long recipe because it’s super simple.

Get This:

• A couple of ripe avocados, sliced in half and pitted
• 3-4 T of coconut oil
• 1 T of Vegenaise for each avocado half
• Sea salt (Use the good stuff. You deserve it.)

Do This:

Heat (medium-high) up the coconut oil in a nonstick pan.
Gingerly place the avocados skin side up in the oil. Don’t be a tool; use some tongs.
Do nothing for 3 minutes.
Remove the avocados and set on a plate skin side down.
Scoop a spoonful of Vegenaise in each avocado half and then sprinkle with salt.

This recipe doesn’t seem to be healthy, so don’t do it every day. But on a Sunday brunch with friends, this side will make your tofu scramble that much better.

Save a pig. Fry some cados.
Be well,

Vegan Guacamole

It’s raw. It’s delicious. It’s fatty, creamy and goes on anything. Guac is a king, and we’re all loyalists.

Get this:

1)    A knife
2)    A bowl
3)    A spoon
4)    3 ripe avocados
5)    3 cloves of chopped garlic
6)    A few pinches of salt

Do This:

1)    Cut avocados in half.
2)    Remove their pits.
3)    Scoop the meat out with a spoon.
4)    Combine all ingredients in a bowl.
5)    Mash it up.

Tip: A food processor will mash it faster. The longer you process the guac, the creamier it will be.

All hail guacamole.

Be well,
