![AVOCADO](https://www.yiannislucacos.gr/sites/default/files/styles/head_image_960x600/public/ingredient322_avocado.jpg?itok=3HCI7PF7)
A pear-shaped fruit with a large pit, green skin and yellow-green meat when ripe. Avocados grow on trees as pears do. The interior fruit is hard like an apple when unripe, but turns to a battery texture when ripe. An avocado has a delicate, nutty flavor. The best variety of avocados comes from Mexico.
