    These Tropical Stuffed Avocados feature the fresh flavors of the beautiful Caribbean. Avocado, mango, shrimp, and red onions combine to make a tropical, healthy, flavorful, and quick dinner. What more could you want?!

    The Humble Avocado

    Ah… the Humble Avocado. So creamy, so beautiful, so versatile. People are gettin’ all kinds of whack with their avocados these days, putting them in brownies and pesto and bread. All that is great and dandy (and interesting… i’d like to try those things), but really, no form of avocado is better than an avocado in its true form. Stuffed avocados are the way to my avocado lovin’ heart.

    Recipe Adaptations

    Either way, I don’t think you’re going to fault me too much, because these Tropical Stuffed Avocados are…. Delicious. I made them once to test for the blog and eat for dinner. Then I made them again the very next day to prep as a lunch for the whole week. Four days later and I still wasn’t sick of them.

    The avocado was incredible, the shrimp added some delicious protein, and the mango adds a bit of freshness! Plus, if you have extra mango, you can make this Mango with Sticky Rice Recipe 😉

    If you want to add some extra crunch to this recipe, throw in a few crumbled walnuts! They would taste amazing.
