6 minServes 2Easy

Toast
Avocado toast that actually holds you until lunch. The egg does the work; the timings below are the part people get wrong.
10 minServes 2Easy

Sandwiches
The construction matters more than the filling: fat against the bread, wet vegetables in the middle, acid on the avocado.
8 minServes 2Easy

Sandwiches
A vegetable wrap with enough fat and protein to be lunch, plus the rolling method that stops the filling escaping.
10 minServes 2Easy

High protein
Avocado replaces the mayonnaise entirely — same creaminess, more fibre, and it tastes fresher.
17 minServes 2Easy

Salads
The salad to make when the avocado is perfectly ripe and you do not want to hide it behind anything.
10 minServes 4Easy

High protein
Poached chicken, avocado in place of mayonnaise, lemon and herbs. Works in a sandwich, on leaves or straight from the bowl.

Vegan
Chickpeas make this a meal rather than a side. Good warm, good cold, and it survives a lunchbox.
15 minServes 4Easy

Smoothies
Half an avocado, a banana, milk. The ratio below is the one that stays drinkable rather than setting like a pudding.
5 minServes 2Easy

Smoothies
Spinach for colour and minerals, banana and avocado to make sure you cannot taste it.
5 minServes 2Easy

High protein
Post-workout version. Yoghurt and protein powder do the work; the avocado stops it tasting thin and chalky.
5 minServes 1Easy

Smoothies
The difference between a bowl and a smoothie in a bowl is about 150 ml of liquid. This one is built to hold granola on top.
8 minServes 2Easy

Dips
Half the fat of guacamole, more protein, and it stays good in the fridge for two days rather than one.
8 minServes 6Easy

Dips
Between hummus and guacamole: chickpeas and tahini for depth, avocado for the colour and the silk.
10 minServes 8Easy

Indian
Made the way any raita is made, with avocado in place of half the cucumber. Richer, and it cools heat better.
10 minServes 4Easy

Dinner
The sauce is blended raw and stirred through hot pasta off the heat. Cook it and it turns grey and bitter.
18 minServes 4Easy

Dinner
A pesto with a fraction of the oil, no pine nuts needed, and peas stirred in for sweetness and protein.
19 minServes 4Easy

Mexican
Spiced beans, avocado sliced not mashed, and a five-minute pickled onion that lifts the whole plate.
20 minServes 4Easy

Vegan
Vegan maki with two fillings. The rice is the whole recipe — get that right and the rolling is straightforward.
50 minServes 4Medium

Breakfast
A savoury bowl you can prep on Sunday: cooked grain, boiled eggs, avocado sliced fresh each morning.
28 minServes 2Easy

Keto
Two halves, two eggs, twenty minutes. Scooping out a little extra flesh first is what stops the egg running everywhere.
21 minServes 2Easy

Dinner
A cold soup for hot weather, blended in one go. Chill it hard — lukewarm avocado soup is unpleasant.
15 minServes 4Easy

Keto
Avocado replaces the mayonnaise in the filling. Greener, fresher, and they hold their shape on a platter.
25 minServes 6Easy

Indian
Chaat masala and lime do to avocado exactly what they do to boiled potato. Assemble it at the table, not before.
15 minServes 4Easy
