… except in my house. 6 recipes for those of you more fortunate than I.

If you’ve been following my socials at least for the last 2 weeks, you know that I spent a few days in San Francisco. I was so happy to go on vacation and be able to EAT.

But naturally, going on vacation means clearing out all the fresh food in the house. So when you come back, you don’t have moldering piles of old produce waiting in your fruit bowl.

Spot the avo-meme.

I got my avocado fix before leaving home. I definitely got my avocado fix in SF.

But despite picking up some groceries here and there over the last week, there are still NO AVOCADOS IN THE HOUSE.

No guac. No avotoast. No yummy winter Buddha bowls crowned with an avocado half diced in the skin.

As I lament my lack of avoliciousness, I’ve compiled a recipe roundup from the Recipe Box over on our sister site saragalipeau.ca loaded with avogoodness. If you’re fortunate to coexist with plentiful avocados in your home, maybe – just maybe – you can use one of my recipes in my stead.
