This is surely the best known trick and the easiest to implement.

The softer the avocado, the better.

Simply mash the flesh with a fork.

Then, we add spices that we dose according to our tastes.

Then we eat the guacamole like that, or with tortillas or spread on toast.

2. A healthy milkshake

Forgot your avocados in the pantry?

Chances are they've turned brown and really soft.

Never mind!

Cut them in half, collect the flesh and put it in a blender.

Mix by adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a little milk and ice cubes.

The resulting drink is light and full of vitamins.

In summer, I advise you to put a scoop of lime ice cream or some strawberries to give a more pronounced taste.

It may sound strange, but you can make a chocolate cake with avocados instead of butter.

It's great for those who are allergic to lactose.

Why?

Because avocado is quite fatty and replaces butter .

And it is ideal for using those that are overripe and no longer very beautiful.

Find the recipe here, it's super easy. And it's super good.

Don't worry, we don't taste the avocado.

On the other hand, it enhances that of chocolate.

9. A mask to hydrate the face

When the avocados are really too overripe and no longer presentable, think of beauty recipes.

Personally, I don't like commercial cosmetics.

Why ? Because they are full of unhealthy ingredients.

So I often use what's in my kitchen.

An overripe avocado turns into a moisturizing mask.

I mix it and add 1 tablespoon of argan oil.

Then, I apply it on my skin for 30 minutes before rinsing off with lukewarm water.

Result:my skin is very soft and well hydrated.

10. A care against cracked feet

Same principle, but this time to treat cracked feet.

I mix the blackened avocado with sweet almond oil or shea butter so that the mixture is very smooth.

Then, I spread this ointment on my dry heels.

The best is to put a cling film over it and put on a pair of socks and let it act for at least 1 hour.

If the cracks are deep, leave on overnight.

11. A treatment for dry hair

A blackened avocado will find a second life as a hair mask.

Mix the fruit with a little argan oil and coat the hair with this treatment.

Leave on for at least 30 minutes before rinsing off with lukewarm water.

If you have dry ends, you can apply this recipe just on this part of your hair.

No more dry hair that frizz and split ends.
