Avocado

Patience and care is the key to buttery, smooth avocado. A very gentle squeeze around the top of the fruit will indicate ripeness. Storing them in the fridge will prevent any further ripening for a few days, and the stone helps prevent browning, so leave it in situ in any unused avocado halves to slow the oxidation process

Containing heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, the filling nature of avocados mean you don’t need much to satisfy hunger, and just half an avocado counts as 1 of your 5 a day. They contain other nutrients too, especially vitamin E, which helps to protect our body’s cells
