Please bear with me on this post. Avocado in the morning is not everyone’s cup of tea. Nor a salad either. But here are 12 breakfast ideas that might pique your interest to try one, or two or twelve. My first choice is going to be Mexican Scrambled Eggs. Need not be just for breakfast either. Brunch anyone ?

Perfect Fruit And Veggie Smoothie
If you hate the taste of bananas in your smoothie (some people do!) use avocado instead like in this recipe from Prevention. You’ll get similar creaminess and thickness—with an extra dose of healthy fats.

Breakfast tacos are hard evidence that these packed tortillas are ALWAYS a great idea—morning, afternoon, or night. But if you’re vegan, most breakfast tacos (which often contain eggs) are off the table. Until now! Try out this plant-based version, which features scrambled tofu.

OK. Did any one of these make your mouth water for avocado in the a.m. ? I hope you are saying, “Yes. Yes they did”, because my mouth is and I just ate.

Great! Dear Dennis 😊
I love avocados and eat them practically every day, plus I also have some in my smoothies first thing in the morning. They are delightful!!
Love smashed avocado on toast for breakfast.
My fav really. But becoming more expensive. These new ideas are a plus!❤
