I don't eat bread so that's out but sounds wonderful
I used to always just make a whole one I to guacamole and eat some with all meals. Lately I have been making a chop salad with finely chopped lettuce scallion red onion purple cabbage radish and a pinch of carrot for color. Then add some protein a little mayo, lemon juice and avocado chunks. Love it. Good and gooey and very filling.
I always thought of a smoothie but only avocado works for BF. No other carbs or veggies. Do you think thinning it with a little water, add seasonings and blend would work? I don't do dairy either so no milk or cream or cheese. I just want avocado but not sure if water would make it gross. Maybe I'll try and see. I guess that's the only way to find out.
Thinking about it I would still want it thick, like pudding and eat it with a spoon or maybe a little thinner with a straw. Looks like some experimenting in the future. I never met an avocado I didn't like. Haha

The mayo I use is called JustMayo by Joy. It's non GMO expeller pressed canola oil. Vegan, gluten, dairy and egg free. Tastes great. Very creamy. I love it mixed with horseradish sauce, mustard or hot sauce. I love creamy and gooey foods. The chopped salad is my new fav. I pre hop all the veggies other than lettuce and store in containers. Then all I need to do us assemble. I have goot n very lazy it's meals and keep things simple and fresh. Why go through all that trouble when simple tastes so good, right ? I actually prefer most protein cold mixed with veggies mayo and avocado.The salad you describe sounds amazing, just like something I would like! What kind of mayo do you use? I like Lidl mayo, as it is low in carbs and protein, but I am not too happy with its vegetable oils.
I am not sure about changing the smoothie recipe, as I am more successful when I stick to a recipe. However, I cannot imagine why I should not work to whizz an avocado with seasonings that fit, a bit of lime or lemon and maybe a bit of water or a type of milk. I like my smoothies very thick and creamy though.
By the way, I am not eating 'real' bread at the moment. Right now I have a large batch of a courgette bread with coconut flour and eggs, and a tiny amount of banana. Before that I had a linseed-egg bread from this site.
