The Amazing Avocado: The Ultimate Avocado Cookbook – because is there anything besides guacamole to make with xD
I like the avocado slicer, pitter and scooper by Utopia Kitchen.
I would also love to have the Absolutely Avocados book! Looks awesome!
I would love to get the OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer because we eat a lot of avocados & it would be a great addition to my kitchen!
We would like to try the OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer: allows you to scoop out the fruit into perfect slices with the simple fan blade…I always mess up getting slices, ends us smashed !
Wow, I never realized there were so many avocado themed products out there. I could really use the Evriholder Avo Saver Avocado Holder because I love avocados but I am the only person in my home who eats them. I either have to eat the whole thing or cut the gross brown parts off leftovers.
The book “The Amazing Avocado: The Ultimate Avocado Cookbook – Turn a Simple Ingredient into Something Elegant” by Robert Embree would be great to learn how to make a number of delicious avacado recipes.
i would like the NOW Foods Avocado Oil actually for beauty reasons.
I like the Set of 6 Variety Pack Reusable Food Covers, 4 Food Huggers + 2 Avocado Huggers, Green because it would help me out dramatically in my kitchen.
I’d like the AvoSeedo Bowl Grow your own Avocado Tree Evergreen. How fun does that sound?
I would like the OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer, Green. This would be perfect for slicing avocados for salads. Yum! 🙂
Utopia Kitchen 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer, Pitter, and Scooper- I want to give this a try and see if it actually works.
Honestly, I would just like the 6 lbs California Hass Avocados. I love avocados and I would definitely use them all.
I would love the OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer in Green because i dont have an avocado slicer and it would make my life easier
I would get the Utopia Kitchen 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer, Pitter, and Scooper, since it would make it easier to eat avocados!
I would like the Evriholder Avo Saver Avocado Holder. It would be nice to have something to save any leftover avocado easily.
I would like the avocado storage keeper : amazon.com/Fresh-Avocado-Keeper-Storage-Container/dp/B004TTXBTK/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1465057019&sr=8-6&keywords=avocado
its a quirky gift to give to someone (my mom) who is a avid avocado eater/lover
I would like a bottle of pure avocado oil. I would like to try cooking with it, as I have heard it imparts a very nice flavor.
I would love the avocado slicer so I can easily slice avocados for recipes.
I would love to try the Avocado Keeper. Brown avocados are not appetizing.
