I am an avocado lover and if you’ve been reading my blog for a while you know that by now. Some say avocados are tasteless, I completely disagree. It all depends on how you eat or prepare them! Not only do I love the taste, but I love the nutritional punch they offer. Avocados contain just the right type of healthy fat that pregnant women and their growing babies need…

The key to making fantastic guacamole is starting with fantastic avocados! I have a new find I’m excited to tell you about! Paradise Grove Avocados! They grow absolutely delicious, beautiful Hass avocados! They’re thin-skinned, with great flavor and a wonderfully creamy, super smooth texture…

I was sent Avocados from Paradise Grove to review. I must say that these Avocados are absolutely beautiful…all of them are uniformly the same size and when first sent were a gorgeous shade of green. It took about a week until my Avocados were ripe enough to eat. Thankfully my patience paid off because these Avocados are the best I have ever tasted-rich and thick not watery or stringy…

When I received my box of avocados from Paradise Grove, the first thing I noticed was the size of the avocados. They were HUGE! Significantly larger than the Haas Avocados from Mexico that I usually purchase at the grocery store. I also noticed the rich, green color of the skin. These avocados just LOOKED healthier in appearance than some I had seen in the past.
Ingredients:
2 large Avocados, peeled and pitted
1 small papaya, peeled and pitted
1 ruby red grapefruit, peeled and segmented
1 small head of lettuce
2 Tbs olive oil
1 Tbs lemon juice
Salt and pepper tt
Directions:
Cut the papaya and Avocados into one-inch pieces and mix them together in a suitably sized bowl. Using a sharp knife, remove the thin membrane from each of the grapefruit segments. Cut them in half, then add to the fruit mixture.
Wash lettuce and break into smaller leaves. Place leaves on a platter and fruit mixture on top of them.
To make the dressing, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and serve.
The company sends the avocados pretty firm in order to allow the buyer to have these avocados ripen in their own time. Paradise Grove harvests their avocados green, retaining its quality through shipment and when received by the buyer. Can you believe they let their avocados harvest until they reach 8 ounces! That is a alot of avocado and lots of flesh too!

I was recently fortunate enough to sample a Hass avocado from Paradise Grove in Ventura, California. Now, not being a big guacamole fan, I’m always looking for interesting ways to use this bumpy, green fruit. One thing I love is actually mashing up very ripe avocados and using them to replace half of the fat in quick bread and muffin recipes. You’d be amazed at the results!

I always get so upset after I buy avocados from the grocery store because they only last a day or two before they go bad. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I first opened the Paradise Grove avocado box. The size of the avocado’s is just amazingly big, especially when you compare them to the grocery store avocado (which seem very small).
I have always enjoyed a yummy, green and ripe avocado. I eat mine with salt, yum! They are healthy and fill me up fast. I usually just buy mine at the supermarket, but was excited to see that I could buy them online, and have them shipped right to my door. Paradise Grove Avocados ships directly to you…
