Fancy an Avocado Trick?

Don’t you just hate it when you buy an avocado and at home you realize it's under-ripe? Choosing avocados is a bit tricky - kind of a gamble, isn't it?
Well, here is a nifty trick that involves a banana and will speed up the ripening process in no time. According to Kalisa "ripe bananas release a lot of ethylene, so placing one in a closed paper bag with your under-ripe avocados will speed up the process". Anjali gave it a go and she said it worked like a charm. I did the same this morning and I can’t wait to check on it tonight. Eek, I must be such a dork for being that excited:).

Lovelies, will you try it too? xo

P.S: Two more takes on avocados.
