Recipe from Jason Mraz, singer, songwriter, avocado farmer

Ingredients:

Directions: 

Chef’s note: For this dish you can only use an unripe avocado. Make sure it is rock hard and still has a stem at the top. It must stay naturally sealed in order to bake properly.

Bake avocado for 20 minutes at 500ºF on baking sheet. Skin will peel away, and fruit will be the texture of a baked potato.

Pour on your favorite local olive oil and a few pinches of sea salt.

Recipe note: Jason Mraz is a singer/songwriter who also owns an organic avocado farm in San Diego, California. He recently teamed up with The Nature Conservancy for this public service announcement featuring his song “I’m Yours” to help raise awareness about protecting the Earth. In providing this recipe, he says, “Welcome to delicious!”
