Ingredient: Avocado
The Avocado is an incredibly versatile and nutritious fruit. It is renowned for its creamy texture and mild, almost nutty flavour, making it a popular ingredient in a wide variety of recipes.
Beyond its delicious taste, avocados are packed with essential nutrients, including healthy monounsaturated fats, fibre, potassium, and an array of vitamins including vitamin K, vitamin E, and B-vitamins. These contribute to heart health, lower cholesterol levels and support digestion.
