Avocado Paste Sandwich

Recipe #190939 | 3 min | 3 min prep | add private note
Rainforest

We have an avocado tree and I make these sandwiches for myself all the time. My 16 month old does not like avocados and this is the only way he'll eat them. There is a variety that tastes very buttery and my grandmother used to call the avocado "poor man's butter" because she would use it on bread instead of butter when times were hard. By itself the paste is an excellent first food for baby.

SERVES 1 , 1 sandwich (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Smash avocado on a plate with a fork.
  2. 2
    Spread between two pieces of bread.
  3. 3
    Serve.
  4. 4
    Omit the bread and the paste alone makes a good first baby food.
  5. 5
    If I'm packing this for lunch sometimes I'll rub the avocado with a cut lime before making the paste.
  6. 6
    For the adults we add a pinch of salt. Baby/toddler - no salt.

I've made something similar, but I add a slice of provalone cheese and use Spike seasoning instead of salt.

    I love avocados and this is an easy, simple and delicious way to use them! I used the lime and the salt and it was so good! I opted to use just one piece of bread, which I toasted. Thanks!

    We love avacado so this was a perfect sandwich for us. I also add some garlic and a little olive oil, together with the salt.
