Avocado

I was deciding on what to eat for dinner today. I made chili for the boys, and I planned on cooking vegetable soup (potato, kale, tomato, onion, ginger, and okra) for me. My veggie soup would be so perfect for today's mid 20s °F temperature, but feels like it's 14°F. Brrr to the bones. As I have shared before, I have been eating strictly plant-based food on weekdays.

Today, all I was sure of was I wanted to eat bananas and avocado. So I scrapped the soup, and made a small amount of oatmeal and added my fruits in it. dinner

Don't judge. This change of lifestyle has totally made me, and my body very happy, and healthy! My last visit to the doctor was fantastic. She said, "I don't know what changes you made, but just keep doing it! You're doing great!"

P.S. Before I introduced my body to all plant based food, I was extremely allergic to avocado, and some fruits. After a few months of the diet, my mouth and my throat doesn't get super itchy anymore if I have bites of it.

    It is so lovely to eat avocado as they have abundance of health benefits. My wife loves them but they are so expensive in my country as we have to import them. I am surprised to learn that there are people like you who could be allergic to fruits. What was the side effects?

    Keep warm as the temperature is so cold there!

      My mouth and my throat would be very itchy. Worst was I had a terrible asthma attack.

      Avocado here is expensive too. It's $1.50 each lately. Sometimes it would be $3 each. In the Philippines, our next door neighbor had a tree, so we always had them for free.

    Love both fruits but to put them with my oats, that would be a different story. I am the kind of person who will eat one thing at a time, avocado first, then bananas, then oats or the other way around. It was only recent that I see avocados being sold at the market here but they are still expensive.

    Sila ate at nanay ay mahilig din sa avocado with milk and sugar.
    Ako minsan lang, kasi parang may after taste na mapait ang dating sa akin hehehe.
