lbrabbin Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 It the fat in ground beef enough or should I be adding avocado or something? Beef is 80/20. Also, if i have a salad with olive oil drizzle, can I have avocado on it too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Tom Denham Posted November 29, 2012 Moderators Share Posted November 29, 2012 Maybe. It depends upon what would taste good to you and how much fat you need to feel satisfied. I've had sliced avocado on top of ground beef chili because it tastes good. With a salad, you probably need to add avocado because olive oil doesn't add that much fat to the overall meal and a salad adds none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyS Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Tom has the real, sensible, Whole30 answer. So I'll weigh in with this: of COURSE you need to add avocado! There is nothing that you don't need to add avocado to! Avocado all the way! Ahem. Back to your regularly scheduled actual real advice about Whole30.

Alana in Canada Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Oh gah--I had the "chili" from the book ISWF for lunch and it is the best EVER. It's my most favouritist thing ever and makes me glad I did the whole30 just for itself. Avocado on ground beef. Who knew? (No, we don't get a lot of tex-mex here in the frozen North) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xandra Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 The guac packs from Costco are perfect for this. Just clip a corner and add a squeeze to every meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLC1968 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I hated all forms of avocado for the first 43 years of my life. I mean, I actually gagged when trying to eat guacamole! When I went paleo a year and a half ago, I set about learning to like avocado. Now I put it on everything. LOVE IT! I also learned to like egg yolks and bacon (two other things I used to hate). Now, if I could only teach myself to love mayo, I'd be all set. To the op: one of my favorite things to eat is a grass fed beef burger topped with fresh guacamole! So if you like it, add it!

I can't stand the texture of plain avocado either I had no idea it was possible to dislike avocado. Wow! And, you know, more for me, so woot! The guac packs from Costco are perfect for this. Just clip a corner and add a squeeze to every meal. Too far a drive for me. Ah well. I hated all forms of avocado for the first 43 years of my life.

Renee Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Haha! I also don't love avocados. I like them in guacamole and I'll enjoy them in salads, but I don't eat it by itself. I think it may be something with the texture. I also don't love the texture of bananas However, I can't think how it's possible not to love BACON!
