What's so Brainy About Avocados

What you may not know is that the Avocado is a fruit. What you probably have read is that avocados are a cool, creamy fruit grown in warm regions of the world. They are nutrient dense; and thus should be a desirable part of a healthy diet. They are full of  vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals that energize and protect the body. Avocados provide a combination of 20 vitamins, minerals and photo-nutrients = phytonutrients. Though phytonutrients aren't essential for keeping you alive, they may help prevent disease and keep your body working properly. This delicious green fruit has shown to be effective as an anti-inflammatory, good for your heart, your hair and skin. 

I love to eat them like an apple; peeled of course. The taste and texture are incredible... Also, great stuff to use in wraps!

and saw this sandwich, which I am definitely going to make for my St. Patty's Day!
