Pickled Avocado (low-carb, keto, paleo, vegan)

Pickled avocado! Have you ever had it? While I’m admittedly a lover of all things pickled this may just be my favorite new way to eat avocado!

These tangy slices are delicious on tacos, soups, salads, and even smashed as guacamole sans lime juice. They keep for about a week so this is a fun way to jazz up boring meals all week long.

Note: Nutrition facts are estimated as some of the ingredients are only used for pickling. Due to negligible effects on nutrition facts, I fully included them in the calculation.

Step-by-step

  1. Place the avocado cut into eighths, crushed garlic, and cilantro in a jar.

  2. Bring the remaining ingredients to a boil then pour over the avocado. Place the lid on and transfer to the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving.

    Pickled avocados will keep up to one week in the refrigerator.

    I’ve made pickled avocados several times and they are amazing! They usually lasted longer than a week, unless we ate them up! But I always used the recipes with sugar. Now that I’m doing Keto, I’m so glad I found this recipe to store my avocados longer! Only problem - I only have brown sugar Swerve and Powdered sugar Erythlitol. I’m going to make them anyway and see which works better! Thank you - I have missed these!

      That sounds like a good alternative, I'd definitely try that. Let me know what you thought of it! 😊

    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor

      Absolutely!

    I would love to try this but am one of “those” people if find cilantro and soap to be in the same family. Any substitute besides parsley or should I just leave it out? Thanks!

    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor

      Yes, you can skip it. Parsley would be my next option after cilantro 😊
