Whipped Avocado & Lemon Juice Mash
Avocado provides a rich, calorie-dense base that digests slowly. Adding a small, deliberate squeeze of lemon juice introduces a sharp citrus note that cuts through taste numbness, helping to reset a metallic palate.
Gentle for metallic taste, low appetite.
Ingredients
- 1/2 ripe avocado
- 1/4 tsp fresh lemon juice
- A tiny pinch of salt
How to make it
- Scoop the avocado into a small bowl.
- Add the lemon juice and a tiny pinch of salt.
- Mash vigorously with a fork until completely whipped and smooth. Eat directly with a spoon.
