Sliced Avocado Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Avocado

   Start by selecting a ripe avocado. Cut the avocado in half lengthwise, rotating around the pit. Twist gently to separate the two halves.

2. 2

   Remove the Pit

   Carefully remove the pit from the avocado half using a spoon or by gently tapping a knife into it and twisting. Be cautious to not cut yourself.

3. 3

   Slice the Avocado

   Using a knife, make lengthwise cuts in the avocado flesh while it's still in the skin. Cut to your desired thickness, usually about 1/4 inch thick.

4. 4

   Squeeze Lemon Juice

   Take the lemon and cut it in half. Squeeze the juice from half of the lemon over the sliced avocado to add flavor and prevent browning.

5. 5

   Season the Avocado

   Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the avocado slices to taste. Drizzle with olive oil for added richness.
