How To Grill An Avocado

Grilled avocado is growing in popularity and for the longest time I wondered if it would have any affect on the taste and texture of the fruit. Now, having tried it, I love how it subtly enhances the taste of avocado. After grilling, the outside parts of the flesh crisps up a little bit and the inside is soft and molten. It is easy to do and adds a unique twist on avocado.

Here are the simple instructions for grilling avocado.
