Barbecues Sizzle With Avocado Versatility

(NAPSA) - An easy way to make your backyard barbecues sizzle is to include avocados in the menu.

Whether sliced, diced or grilled, Hass avocados can add freshness and creamy goodness to warm weather entertaining.

The nutty flavor of Hass avocados is even more tempting when paired with a variety of grilled meats and side dishes. Make great-tasting entrees by topping hamburgers and bratwursts with guacamole or adding avocado slices to carn'tas and steak.

Create the satisfying side dishes by mixing diced avocados into premade salsas or homemade salads.

A flavorful complement to grilled meats is the Creamy Avocado Potato Salad. This twist on a classic salad invokes the lazy days of summer with easy preparation and fabulous flavor. Simply combine chunks of potato, celery and onion with dressing before folding in Hass avocados and cilantro to create a delectably fresh salad concoction.
