Avocado

It is a fruit with a soft pulp of delicate flavour. Round or piriform-shaped fruit. The skin varies from green to black, depending on the variety and ripening stage. The origin also varies according to the variety and season of the year, but is available year-round.

Avocado is rich in monounsaturated fats. Replacing saturated fats by unsaturated fats (consuming Avocado, for example) helps to keep normal blood cholesterol levels under control.

Avocado can be a delicious and healthy meal, whether consumed fresh, on toasts, in sauces, sandwiches or salads. This is a very versatile fruit.
