This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Hass Avocado Board featuring Hass Avocados for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
I’m writing this post to tell you about the Kick Off with Hass Avocados Recipe Contest. You can enter a recipe in their contest for a chance to win a trip to the Rose Bowl Game®! And if you’re not that creative in the kitchen, you can enter their weekly sweepstakes for a chance to win a box of avocados. And if you’re not a lucky person, it’s okay because there are 14 weeks of free avocado giveaways.
Are you an avocado fan? I am. I like to:
- Make a simple guacamole, and dip pork rinds in it instead of tortilla chips.
- Pile guacamole on top of a bunless burger.
- Eat slices of avocado, plain.
- Or just eat half an avocado right out of the skin with a spoon.
And I know that people I know and love have enjoyed avocados in their green smoothies, or in pudding or ice cream. No joke. Apparently avocado, banana, and cocoa powder makes a great pudding. I haven’t tried it though.
Avocados are also a great first food for babies. Ripe ones are easy for babies learning to eat, and they’re so nutrient-dense and full of good fats!
Do you have a favorite “game day” avocado recipe to share? You could enter the Kick Off with Hass Avocados Recipe Contest for a chance to win (for 4 people!) round trip airfare, hotel accommodations, participation in a Rose Bowl Game® Welcome Reception, admission to the “behind-the-scene” Rose Bowl Parade® decorating site, sightseeing tour of Pasadena, admission to the Rose Bowl Game® on January 2. 2012 + more
