Avocado, yey or ney?

[Cuppacocoa]

Hi guys, I love avocado and it would go down nicely on the puree / soft food post op diet, but is it ok to have? I know it's crammed full of nutrients but it's also very high in fat so am always a bit unsure about it.

What do you guys think?

I am going to get some avacados, they are so good for you, and squishy and mushy. I've just had shepherds pie, colcannon and gravy, really lovely and tasty. Let's hope Jackie likes it, I think she does.

I say yum, I mean yes! Avacado is a perfect soft food or blended it can be done during purees. It is the 'good' kind of fat so I wouldn't worry on that point. I have made an awesome dish with avacado, a little greek yogurt and some tomato salsa & blend. YUM!!! I heart avacados!

I dont think I have ever eaten avocado...only ever in a guacomole never just advocado...I might try these...Thanks!

Just make sure it is VERY ripe. Even to the point that it is a bit bruised. Just take away any black bits.

Good luck
