Perfect Oscar Party Avocado Recipes, and Win a Trip to Hollywood!
Friday, February 22, 2013 9:42AM
On today's show, Cheryl Forberg, a James Beard Award-winning chef and New York Times bestselling author, joined Anderson in-studio to share her top 3 favorite Oscar party recipes.
Cheryl showed Anderson the many ways to enjoy avocados -- in dips, bowls, salads, soup toppers, sandwich spreads and even in your favorite smoothies! Avocados are extremely versatile. You can enjoy this nutrient-rich fruit (lots of good fats) as a stand-alone snack or as part of a variety of delicious recipes. One ounce (or 3 slices) of an avocado has 50 calories and contributes nearly 20 vitamins and minerals, making it a good choice to help meet nutrient needs.
Anderson is not the most skilled cook in the kitchen, but all of these recipes are so easy, even he can make them!
Get the recipes for Hollywood Sushi Roll, And the Winner is... Guacamole, and Red Carpet Ready Ceviche. Plus, enter to win a trip for two to Hollywood!

Add avocados to your Oscar party, and you’re sure to win the award for Best Party!

I am trying to enter for the trip to Hollywood, but can't find it. The link above brings me to the avacado site with a trip to Mexico sweepstakes. Can anyone tell me how to enter?
Love Anderson and his show and watch each every day. As a widow of 5 months I don't have to really make a good maeal for just me but know I should but Anderson comes first and his topics are the best. Wish he like me was a better eater Love marg
Love Anderson and his show. He gets so many good people to appear on his show and I really enjoy everything. Since I am now a widow of only 5 months I like Anderson am not a good eater. I am a good cook but hate to do it just for one. I don't need to lose weight so am at a loss as to what to make each night for dinner and since we live in a small town with only one restauran and no deliveery I have to think and think as what to make for one person every night. Lunch is no problem just a good sandwich with pickles on the side and that is my best meal of the day I tell my kids. Keep up the good work with your show Anderson and I will soon settle in to being a widow and learn how to cook for just one. Margaret
I wanted to enter the contest. I LOVE avocados & am going to be making the guacamole from your show for the Oscars. Oscars are a BIG deal in our house. My husband is an actor (and has a "day job.) He has been on "**** van Dyke Diagnosis:Murder" and other TV shows. But hasn't hit the big time even tho' he is approaching 60. He enjoys doing local theater & is always recognized in grocery stores (buying avacados!)
Anyway. I cannot enter this contest. We do not have Cellphones. They are too expensive & we are on a very limited budget. We do not even have a digital camera. My husband has a very old camera that it takes 2 weeks to get the photos developed in our town. Absurd, I know.
Anyway! I LOVE your show. I love your laugh, Anderson. Always makes me laugh. And your topics are important (like hoarding)
Thanks from Dixie in Longmont CO
