Can we have an 'I've got xxx, what can I do with it?' thread

[originalmavis]

I shall start:
I have -12 ripe avocados, impulse purchase packet of edame bean 'spaghetti' and a head of yellowing broccoli. (Obviously that's not all I have but the most imminently in need of eating).

What can I do with his?

Avocados (12?!?!)
guacamole with 2 and perhaps roast your broccoli florets to dip in

This avocado spaghetti is lovely annajones.co.uk/recipe/avocado-lemon-zest-spaghetti

Avocado cake

avocados mushed up or blended with icing sugar and rum is tasty

[originalmavis]

Is that a dip, cake topping or cocktail?

[Penfold007]

You could freeze some of the avocados. Halve, peel, put in zip-lock bag and freeze or mash up with a squeeze of lemon juice, put in a plastic tub and freeze.

mine? a pudding to eat with a spoon, like syllabub or angel delight only a bit thicker

I've never thought of avocados as sweet. I'm making some guacamole today (I know, boring but a favourite) and will try the rum one.

Maybe a face pack? I seem to remember them being used for that.

The broccoli got roasted in the end with slivers of almond, onion, coriander seed and sun dried tomatoes.

The edame bean 'pasta' was nice enough (roast tomato, onion, garlic and olive oil sauce) I thought but when asked if they'd like it again, the troops weren't keen.

The reason I have so many is that we both bought some, then the local supermarket was selling some discounted ones for 29p for 2 and I can't resist a bargain (especially when they are usually 99p for one!).

I have a friend who likes avocado milkshake. I think it's horrible, but maybe worth a try?

Avocado, lemon juice and chopped red chilli on toast is one of my very favourite things lately.

Broccoli and Stilton soup? Or shove it in a quiche? Or put it in a curry?
