Horrid! A waste of avocados.

I've had this a few times and I find this recipe very satisfying. It's easy to mix up the seasonings however you like. Lemon is great...so is pickle juice! Something about the textures in this dish are what really make it awesome!

Really yummy! I just made for myself and used 2 whole eggs and 1 avocado. Forgot to use olive oil (oops!). Loved it, thank-you!

Amazing how such a simple recipe can have such satisfying flavor. I added a dash of balsamic vinegar for taste. Great work, Ms Bold.
