Default Cooking with Avocado Leaves

My son is obsessed with starting avocado seeds and has grown lots plants from them. We alllmmmost have the right climate for avos, but we get those cold snaps and sometimes snow in the winter. Just one freeze will do the plants in, so I'm not hopeful of getting any fruit off of them. Plus, they take years to mature. However, they are very pretty plants and look great as a house plant. Lately, I started thinking that maybe the leaves might be edible. They are!!!

Here's a website tells of many ways to use them:

I'm going to start harvesting some leaves and drying them for teas and seasoning. They are supposed to go great with black beans.
