This is one of the easiest to prepare recipe of fish (Pacific Cod) and avocado sauce you’ll ever come across.
Oh my avocado goodness! I’m in loooovvve with avocados.
I mean what’s not TO love!? The vibrant color that can brighten up any gloomy day. That silky rich creaminess that magically freezes everything around you. Leaving you eating in slow motion while melting all your worries away. I mean not only do avocados taste oh so yummy good. They also are just oh so good for you too! Avocados are packed with healthy fats, vitamins and they help your body absorb nutrients and antioxidants. You seriously cannot win at life any more than this.

The mustard lemony avocado sauce pairs really well with the flaky cod. And look at that beautiful color!!! It doesn’t get any better than adding vibrant avocado color and rambunctious flavor to this hearty fish dish or ANY fish dish for that matter.

Made this delicious recipe for my dinner tonight. Used haddock and it was delicious, and also made the avocado sauce with Dijon mustard. Served it with yellow rice and carrots and beans. My family absolutely loved it.
I’m so glad your family loved it, Johanne! Thanks for the feedback. Your combination sounds delicious!
I made this for lunch with a little green salad. It was so easy and absolutely delicious. I can’t believe how tasty the avocado was. I’ve never thought of adding mustard. I didn’t want to stop eating the whole dish. Thank you x

Hi, which kind of mustard should be used please?
I like English mustard and not really keen on Dijon or brown…
But I am keen to find an avocado sauce for prawn salad to replace typical seafood sauce as am dieting.
Thank you very much 🙂
Hi Claire! So sorry I’m so late to respond to your comment. I use American yellow mustard and I bet the English mustard tastes a bit more sophisticated ☺️ did you end up trying this sauce? Let me know how it turned out!
I made this for supper last night using cod and really enjoyed it. I had lemon rice as a side. I’ve never had fish and avocado before, but I will definitely be doing it again! Thanks for the recipe.
Thanks TJ! So glad you liked my recipe and I was able to introduce you to something new. Your lemon rice sounds delicious!!
How did you make your Lemon Rice? Sounds great!
