lazy lunch: avocado

For me, one of the worst things about working at home, is that I hate to eat alone. It is not really the eating itself that is the problem...more the motivation to make something, etc. One thing I have realized is that it is really important for me to keep a few things on hand that are healthy but serve as an instant lunch. Avocados are a perfect choice - creamy and full of "good" fat they are also a good source of fiber, vitamans C and E, and potassium. I like to drizzle the fruit with balsamic vinegar or lime juice and a sprinkle of sea salt and freshly ground pepper and eat it straight from the skin with a spoon.
