This is a fiber-and-vitamin-filled treat for avocado lovers. It comes together in just 12 minutes, you don't need to cook anything, and it's super-satisfying and filling. Choose Haas avocados from California or Mexico, which have a smooth and creamy, full-flavored flesh. To remove the pit from an avocado, cut the avocado in half lengthwise and then twist the halves apart. With the blade of a large chef’s knife, make a quick downward stroke into the pit and twist. The pit should come out cleanly, attaching itself to the knife. Ta-da! If you don't like cilantro, feel free to use whatever fresh herbs you have on hand instead.
