Avocado Recommendations

Here are some tools that can help you serve up more avocados!

OXO Good Grips 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer. You can halve, pit and slice your avocados with this one tool.

OXO Good Grips Scoop and Smash Avocado Tool. This tool makes it simple to scoop out the flesh and then mix to your desired consistency. It even has a scraper for the bowl.

Chosen Foods Avocado Oils. As it turns out, a lot of avocado oil has been shown to be adulterated, but Chosen Foods avocado has been tested to be one of the cleanest options available.
