The humble avocado. They are one of the most beautifying foods on the planet, thanks to their free-radical destroying antioxidants and essential fatty acids, which help keep skin plump and smooth.

Making pies are so simple it’s ridiculous. this particular sweet avocado pie, I have for breakfast or dessert. Every time I eat this I feel like it’s so naughty — but clearly it’s not! It serves every part of your organs in such a profound way! This is what nature requires from you.
