By now, we should all know the health benefits of avocados, which incidentally are the star player in this dish. Just in case, here is a quick recap of all the reasons why you should jump on board with this miracle fruit:
They are jam packed with a ton of nutrients like Vitamin K, Folate, Vitamin C, Potassium, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Vitamin
They contain more potassium than bananas
They are loaded with heart healthy monounsaturated fatty acids
They are very high in fibre
They can can lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels
They are considered to be an aphrodisiac (ooh lala)
The ancient Aztecs called the avocado ahuacuatl, or “testicle tree” due to it’s shape. The catholic priests in spain actually found the shape of the fruit so pornographic that they banned avocados entirely. While they do possess immune boosting properties that can heighten energy levels, it’s the creamy mouth feel that truly makes this a rather sinful fruit.
