I only discovered the delights of DIY guacamole, with FRESH coriander/cilantro a few months ago.
Fantastic discovery!
The bought stuff is just... meh in comparison.

@Brunneria They are the lighter, smooth skinned ones. A decent size too. I am eating one with a spoon as we speak

I eat one almost everyday. I make hot sauce with my home grown peppers and I think I have a slight addiction to it with the avocados. YUM

Why couldn't it be Lidl - we've got several of them locally but no Aldi.

I like avo just peeled and sliced with a sprinkle of coarse seasalt or sprinkle of lime juice or got pepper sauce - or all three. Yum.

No Aldi here either. Sob!

! make a mix adapted from a pesto recipe I found recently: avocado mashed with olive oil, garlic, lime juice, chopped basil, rock salt, and pepper, topped with grated parmesan and chopped pistachio nuts (instead of the more usual?? pine nuts, though it works nicely with these too).

Pine nuts are very expensive here so when I make a pesto I use walnuts.
I like your idea of mixing it all with avocado! Yum

Agreed. Pile it onto a hot toasted and buttered Lidl protein half roll and match the thickness of the roll with the depth of guacamole. Can't be beat!

Hello all, just bought my first ever avocado so really pleased you have all posted what you do with them as I hadn't a clue. Many thanks all

Any northerners might like to know that Morrison's do the best avocados they are in a net usually 4 in them and you can eat them straight away

I wandered into my local Aldi yesterday, looking for just some cream and milk. Was delighted to find the avocados amongst the 'super six savers'. I already had some in the fridge, so loaded up with ten of the least ripe I could find - will probably have an avocado & water diet for the next week

The one opposite the old gasometers is now open near the market

They are cheap here in Bundaberg as well, must have been a good growing season for them down south.

Where abouts????? I was there last week (market) and didn't see one.

Bottom end of Wheatley Hall Road where it meets Beckett Rd - used to be a used car lot.

There's one being built by Kirk Sandall railway station - the job adverts have just gone up so probably a few months to opening yet

Thank you - I'll have to investigate next time I'm in Donny.

FYI also this may be suitable for alternatives once aldi offer is gone. Tesco have started selling frozen avocado halves. I got 9 halves in a pack for 2.50 and they are large size ones, makes it about 56p an avocado. They are peeled and pitted also which might be of use to some

Thank you for that - I had no idea that avocados are freezable.
