Breaded Avocado Fries

Who loves avocado? Now try Avocado Fries! They’re soft on the inside, crunchy on the outside and just plain delicious. Bet you can’t have just one!

There’s this trend out there in the food world of taking different ingredients and turning them into french fries. I’m guessing that the idea is that fries made with potatoes aren’t exactly healthy. Using a healthier main ingredient, and maybe baking them instead of deep-frying them, gives you that same fun finger food feeling without the guilt.

Making Fries From Avocados

Thus enter Avocado Fries. Avocados are a healthy item for sure and fries made out of them are really tasty. The first time I tried them was at a photo shoot that I was doing for Produce for Kids. I was a bit skeptical that they would be good. I thought they’d be kind of mushy. But they weren’t. Nope.

What they were was addictive. Try them now!
