Start at the thinner part of the avocado and cut down to the pit and then work around the avocado until you reach you original starting place. Then separate the halves.

Remove the Pit

Easy way to remove it is to take your knife and hit the pit hard enough with the sharp side the it gets stuck, then twist and remove.

Cut Within Each Half of the Avocado

Cut within each half horizontally and vertically, be careful not to cut through the skin of the avocado. You will end up with multiple smaller sections that will be easier to mash

Scoop the Avocado Into Your Bowl
