Whip up healthy, energizing smoothies and bowls to help your customers jumpstart their morning or beat the afternoon slump with these Pitaya Foods IQF avocado pieces. These avocados are pre-cut, offering versatile preparation options while cutting down on prep time in your busy kitchen. Toss frozen avocado pieces into smoothies for a rich, creamy, and nutrient dense addition that your customers will appreciate in their green smoothies. When they are thawed, you can add these avocados to tacos, burritos, and salads to not only add a vibrant green color to your dish, but to incorporate a healthy fat that will have customers full and satisfied when leaving your establishment. Thawed avocados can also be mashed into a fresh guacamole, or a thick paste to craft trendy avocado toasts topped with everything from smoked salmon to fried eggs or microgreens to house blend spice and seed mixes.
Mashed / pureed avocados can also be used as a replacement for butter in some chocolate baked goods when creating vegan or generally healthier options. Try using them in chocolate brownies, raw chocolate tarts, chocolate quick breads, and even chocolate mousse! Create avocado lime vinaigrettes to dress fresh salads with crispy iceberg lettuce, bright oranges, and spicy watermelon radishes, or drizzle over your side menu option of roasted root vegetables to add a refreshing balance. With so many creations to be discovered, your next signature menu item will benefit from these IQF diced avocados.
Harvested at the peak of ripeness, these versatile avocado pieces are then conveniently pre-cut and individually quick frozen to maintain their freshness at their best form. When avocados are first picked, they start to lose their nutritional value, and freezing in masses lumps the fruit together. Using the IQF method prevents this from happening, and instead keeps the avocado's flavor, structure, nutritional benefits, and natural appearance intact, letting your dishes look and taste their best every time. Thanks to their preservation, the avocados taste deliciously fresh; customers will never guess they were actually frozen!
