Well I tried a couple of the frozen avocado halves and I wasn't impressed. A bit soggy after thawing and didn't have much taste.
I will use the rest in salads with dressing to give them some taste or make some guacamole with them. I don't think I will be buying them again and will stick with fresh Hass avocados in future.

I find they are good in chocolate mousse, they can be a bit mushy

I read in paper yesterday that M&S are now selling frozen peeled, stoned and sliced avocados. Has anyone tried them? Are they any better than the Tesco ones? I suppose I should try them too.

People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
Tesco's frozen avocados are only really good used directly in smoothies... Then they are good. They turn to mush when defrosted. How they are so perfect green I would love to know. None of the ones I use fresh are!!
Would love to know about the M&S ones too.
They also now do spirallised courgettes... But they are so easy to do at home.
