Beyond eating it fresh, Thairath Online shares three simple breakfast recipes in Thai, Western, and Japanese styles that suit modern workers and health-conscious eaters, allowing you to prepare them at home in just minutes.

Here are three easy and healthy avocado recipes.

To choose an avocado suitable for cooking, select one where the stem comes off easily and the flesh feels slightly soft to the touch (not mushy). This ensures a creamy, non-bitter taste. Below are three recipes we've selected that are "easy to make and truly delicious."

1. Thai Style: Spicy Avocado Shrimp Salad (Thai Spicy Salad)

This is ideal for those who enjoy bold, spicy flavors that effectively cut through richness and stimulate metabolism.

• Ingredients: diced avocado, boiled shrimp, bird's eye chili, lime juice, low-sodium fish sauce, stevia as a sweetener.
• Preparation: Mix the dressing to your preferred balance of sour, salty, and spicy. Gently toss in the boiled shrimp and avocado (taking care not to mash the avocado). Garnish with sliced shallots and coriander.
• Healthy Tip: Use stevia instead of sugar to help control blood sugar levels.

2. Western Style: Avocado Toast with Poached Egg (Classic Avocado Toast)

A popular, simple breakfast that provides long-lasting energy, perfect for office workers who need mental focus throughout the morning.

• Ingredients: toasted whole wheat bread, half an avocado, chicken egg, salt, black pepper, olive oil.
• Preparation: Mash the avocado with a pinch of salt and black pepper, spread it on the toasted bread, and top with a poached egg or boiled egg as preferred.
• Healthy Tip: Black pepper aids nutrient absorption and boosts metabolism.

3. Japanese Style: Avocado Donburi with Wasabi Sauce (Avocado Donburi)

A time-saving dish that perfectly combines the creamy aroma of avocado with the distinctive flavors of Japanese-style sauce.

• Ingredients: steamed rice (or brown rice), sliced or diced avocado, soy sauce or mayonnaise, wasabi, choice of meat or tofu.
• Preparation: Place avocado and meat or tofu over hot steamed rice. Drizzle with a wasabi-mixed soy sauce or mayonnaise sauce prepared in advance. Add color and flavor with seaweed and toasted sesame seeds.
• Healthy Tip: Using brown rice increases fiber content, helping you feel full longer.

Starting your day with a simple avocado breakfast not only saves time but also supplies good fats (HDL) that support heart and brain health. Regardless of your taste preferences, these three dishes offer healthy food choices that make weight loss enjoyable and less monotonous.
