Instant Love: Avocado "Fries"

"Instant Love" is my new tag idea for quick bites that don't really require a serious recipe (although our recipes are always more like recommendations than dogmatic prescriptions).  These posts will generally have few ingredients and can come together quickly.  "Instant Love" is a simple, delicious food idea put forth with, well love.  Obviously.

So, when my brother spots something exceptionally delicious-looking online, it's fairly certain he will attempt to create the dish within a week's time.  So, you can understand why I was thrilled when he sent me this link about crispy, creamy avocado fries about a week before I was slated to arrive in NY for a family visit.

Sure enough, my first night in NY with the fam was spent drooling over these delights, and trying to coax my mother to taste a bite (she is, as you can probably tell already, an extremely picky eater.)  Of course, Joey and I didn't fight her too hard...more for us!  They're really easy to prepare if you have a just ripe, but still firm large avocado sliced up nicely, hot canola oil, and panko.  We added a few squeezes of lime juice and were, well, blissed out.

--K, blissed out.
