6 Kid-Friendly Avocado Recipes That Young Ones Can Help Prepare

Avocado Sandwich

• If your kids love a simple sandwich, opt for this avocado sandwich on whole wheat bread. Kids can mash their own avocado-and-sour-cream mixture, then help spread it on the bread.

Turkey Pizza

• Add some fun for your cheese-pizza fanatic with this avocado turkey pizza. Grate mozzarella and let kids sprinkle it over their individual piece.

Caprese Skewers

• If your kids like to work with their hands, try avocado caprese skewers with balsamic dipping sauce. Slice your avocado carefully before handing it over to the kids, then work together to create the perfect combination of cheese, avocado, and tomato.

Mexican Sushi

• Adventurous eaters can give Mexican sushi a go. Teach the kids how to roll and fill their own tortilla wraps.

Avocado Pasta

• Creamy avocado pasta makes for a hearty, fast favorite. Prepare the ingredients, then let your kids blend avocados, garlic, basil, and lemon juice into a sauce and drizzle it over their pasta of choice.

Avocado Ice Cream

• If dinner is already done, finish with tropical avocado ice cream. Show kids how to blend chunks of frozen pineapple and banana, coconut milk, avocado, lime juice, and honey, then place this treat in the freezer to enjoy the next day.

By incorporating these recipes into your menu, you’re more able to focus on what matters most during meal prep: your family.
