Okay, so here’s something a little different.
I’ve been looking for new and interesting fertility food mash-ups, especially with barely a week to go before stims. And there are only so many times you can eat smashed avocado on toast (even if a nice ‘elevated’ version can be found here).
Anyway, if you’re looking for a quick fertility fix in the morning, try this:
Two boiled eggs (I remove the yolks since the dietician at my doctor’s office has me eating eggs every day before and during stims)
Avocado, cubed
Handful of cashews (you can chuck in a couple of walnuts too)
Sprinkle of cayenne pepper
Sprinkle of salt (or lime/lemon juice – this has the added benefit of ensuring the avocados don’t go off colour)
Drizzle of flavoured extra virgin olive oil (If you’re lucky enough to be US-based, I live for Stonehouse and its Blood Orange Oil, which I douse EVERYTHING with).
That’s at least five fertility pick-me-ups on your plate, and it’s delish. You could probably add anything else you might like, and some cilantro for a lift. If it’s handy, I throw in a little garlic.
Enjoy (and feel free to share the recipe)!

This is only way I’ll eat avocado… if it is covered in olive oil (then again, I’ll eat anything drizzled in olive oil. I come from generations of Italians 😉 ). I know avocado is a fertility super food but I just do not like the taste of it… I know, people like me are few and far between. I feel like everyone and their sister/brother love avocado in some shape or form lol I’ll definitely try this!
