For cooking are you using ripe avocados or ones that are pretty firm/hard to slightly underripe?

Cooking avocado doesn't ripen it. It needs to be ripe. The avocado in my pizza above was baked for about 20 minutes in a 400 F oven. You can see that it held its shape and color. They are a little softer than fresh avocado but not mushy.

In general fruits of all varieties cook fine if you don't overdo it. I normally include chopped strawberries in my pancakes, as an example. They don't change in any way but, of course, pancakes don't cook very long.

Good gig!
Loadsa styrofoam tho! Niece does a food biz and I'm always harping on about biodegradable or compostable food containers but she says they're too expensive 🤔

They are at this point. I picked up another client so I'm not far from ditching the styrofoam. It's part of the plan.
