Avocado is one of the best things out there [1] — no, really, name something more delicious. We'll wait. The fruit (it's a fruit!) adds a touch of delicious flavor when added to any dish or eaten with something as a side dish. It adds a cold touch to your mom's hot, comforting sancocho, and it even serves as the perfect cherry on top to a filling tres golpes breakfast. We promise you if you add even just a couple of slices of avocado to the dishes ahead, they will make your palate explode! Get ready for a mix of flavors you didn't know you needed. Reach for an avocado [2] and use it as garnish on these recipes ASAP.
