Pickled avocado! Have you ever had it? While I’m admittedly a lover of all things pickled this may just be my favorite new way to eat avocado!

These tangy slices are delicious on tacos, soups, salads, and even smashed as guacamole sans lime juice. They keep for about a week so this is a fun way to jazz up boring meals all week long.

I’ve made pickled avocados several times and they are amazing! They usually lasted longer than a week, unless we ate them up!  But I always used the recipes with sugar.  Now that I’m doing Keto, I’m so glad I found this recipe to store my avocados longer!  Only problem - I only have brown sugar Swerve and Powdered sugar Erythlitol.  I’m going to make them anyway and see which works better!  Thank you - I have missed these!

That sounds like a good alternative, I'd definitely try that. Let me know what you thought of it! 😊

that sounds amazing

Can I use apple cider vinegar instead ?? Thanks 😊

Absolutely!

I would love to try this but am one of “those” people if find cilantro and soap to be in the same family. Any substitute besides parsley or should I just leave it out? Thanks!

Yes, you can skip it. Parsley would be my next option after cilantro 😊

A way to save that last avocado!!  Brilliant.  Can’t wait to try it out...

I am so going to try this! And I have several ripe avo's to pickle! Whoohoo! This is a really great idea!  👍 👍 👍
