All About My Favorite Fruit….Avocados!
This episode of the Vegetarian Zen podcast is all about avocados! If you’ve been listening for a while, you know that Larissa doesn’t care for avocados but, she knows most of our VZ community is crazy about them as am I.
In today’s episode we’re going to give you a few avocado fun facts, some nutritional facts, talk about how to select a good one, and even share a few recipes from our Peas and Carrots Society who of course had a LOT to share about their love for avocados!
