Food Combinations: Chocolate & Avocado

We know that certain foods just go together. For example, banana and peanut butter, tea and rusks, pork and apple, cheese and marmite or cheese and jam, basil and tomato, guacamole and salsa, strawberries and cream (or goat’s cheese), balsam and olive oil. Some are slightly more weird than others, but actually, work!

This one is for chocolate lovers! You may have tried chocolate and sea salt, or chocolate and chilli, but have you tried chocolate and avocado? Or even Avocado in a dessert at all?!? Chocolate and Avocado go together seamlessly, it’s like having the best of both Worlds!
