Hi there,

This is one from my new cookbook:

Avocado Spread for Sandwiches

Ingredients
• 1 seeded and peeled avocado
• 1 to 2 t. finely chopped chives
• 1 T. pear juice
• 1 T. finely chopped fresh dill
• Salt and pepper as tolerated to taste

Mash avocado with mortar and pestle or just with a fork. Gently combine other ingredients. Spread on bread and add your choice of cooked meat (leftover chicken, turkey, and pork work well.)

To Use as a Dip for Vegetables, Crackers, or Chips

Increase pear juice to 3 T. and use 2 T. finely chopped cilantro in place of dill (if tolerated). Wonderful bladder friendly substitute for it’s spicier cousin guacamole. Try it with Stacy’s Organic Pita Chips!

Thank you

Julie...Does the Pear Juice keep the Avocado from turning brown much like lemon juice does?

[Julie B]

Hi Sharon,

Yes, not quite as good as am acid, but sugar (natural or otherwise--like you have in the juice) can delay the oxidation that causes the browning. Even the real guac I make starts to turn brown after a couple of hours....so, the deal is to make what you need for that meal. :-)

I'm not sure why this happens or if it's the only reason why my cut avocados stay fresh in the fridge, but when I take a slice off an avocado for my meal I leave the pit attached to the avocado. My cut avocados never turn brown! Perhaps you can try this, and it may even work for guacamole (though the mixed ingredients may be what helps the avocado brown, not sure!)

Hope this helps. =)

I have heard that if you put the pit in the guacamole, it will retard the browning. I have friends who swear by this.
