Sliced and each slice dipped in a tempura batter and fried. But it is hard to beat just pulling the pit out and filling that with mayo then salting and eating.

Here is one that there were sampling at the store the other day (yummy):
Avocado & Shrimp Salad
1 small green pepper, small diced
1 small red pepper, small diced
1/2 small Serrano pepper, small diced
1/2 small sweet onion, small diced
1 T. fresh garlic, minced
1 medium avocado, pitted and small diced
1/2 C. lime or lemon juice
2 C sour cream (may use lite)
1 C. whipped cream cheese
2 T. ground cumin
3 T. chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 lb. salad shrimp, cooked and peeled
In a bowl, combine peppers, onion, garlic, avocado and lemon; let ingredients rest for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile mix sour cream and cheese, cumin and chili powder and salt-pepper it to taste.
Combine both mixtures in a larger bowl, and add the shrimp to it. Mix well and serve over bib or iceberg lettuce for presentation.
When I make this I will probably add some cooked, cubed yukon Gold potatoes to it as well.

Chop advocado in bits; toss 3/4 of chunks into zip-loc plastic bag; add lime juice, garlic powder, salt, olive oil, cumin, finely chopped shallots, jalapeno and fresh cilantro (& dollop of sour cream if you like). Zip bag, massage with hands until mashed. Cut off corner of bag--squeeze into bowl, stir in the rest of the advocado chunks; adjust spices; scoop up with chips.

Add it to dinner salads. The 3-Thirty-1 used to do a wonderful and simple chicken-avacado-parmesan salad over mixed greens.
