I'm finding the best avocados in the supermarket lately. They're perfectly ripe, and a gorgeous even light green color with the best velvety smooth texture. Avocados are good for you, so you don't have to feel guilty about adding them to your diet. Try them in recipes like this delicious salmon with a flavorful sauce featuring the buttery fruit. All you need is some crisp bread, simple green beans, and an easy apple and oatmeal cookie treat for dessert.

• Salmon with Avocado Sauce
