Avocados From Mexico [Canada] "Guac Bowl" Contest

Football season is in full swing with the Big Game coming up in only a few weeks!

This is the perfect occasion to indulge in a multitude of culinary classics specific to family and friends’ Big Game watch party.

Nachos, hot dips, and pizzas will be in the spotlight, despite the healthy New Year’s resolutions.

However, that’s when Avocados From Mexico come in, to add some good fats to your game night!

A classic that never goes out of style during the game: guacamole!

The annual event is a key moment in the export of fruit to Canada.

In 2023, Avocados From Mexico observed a significant increase in avocado consumption in the weeks leading up to the Big Game.

In the first 3 weeks of January, over 4,000 tons of avocados arrived in Canadian grocery stores.

This equates to more than 20 million whole fresh avocados…that’s a lot of guac!

Avocados are literally the only fruit containing monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, otherwise known as “good fats”.

With more than 75% of “good fat”, an excellent source of fibre, and a variety of vitamins and minerals, there is no doubt that the avocado ranks among the fruits with sensational nutritional powers.

A few of its superpowers permit maintaining a balanced cholesterol level, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, and enhancing the nutrient absorption of other food.

The reasons to include this tasty green gem in your diet are endless!

In addition to its health benefits, its great versatility and creamy texture allow it to express itself in salty and sweet forms through countless recipes and act as an ideal substitute for mayonnaise or butter in sandwiches, wraps, desserts, and pastries recipes such as a chocolate pie or cupcakes.

During the Big Game, treat yourself and your guests to healthy yet tasty snacks like avocado stuffed jalapeño poppers, avocado artichoke spinach dip or guacamole deviled egg.
