Please tell me you LOVE avocados just as much as I do? It is such a versatile fruit, yes, fruit! This alligator egg provides tons of nutritional benefits. Benefits that people take vitamins, supplements, and prescription medications for in order to supply the body with the same nutrients. Avocados contain a high fat content, but healthy fats-monounsaturated fats. Monounsaturated fats can help lower cholesterol and are heart healthy. As opposed to saturated fats which, increase your cholesterol levels and increase your risks of diabetes. They contain more potassium than bananas do, 14% the recommended daily intake vs 10% in a banana. As well as, more than 15 other nutrients that you probably couldn’t replenish with a multi-vitamin.
On average, I consume at least half an avocado every day. If you are used to butter and toast as part of your breakfast routine, swap the butter for an avocado. It’s buttery, creamy, and just damn delicious. This is what I refer to as an avocado smashy, you literally mash the avocado into your toast. You can load it up with spices, herbs, eggs, chia seeds(my favorite), get creative-everything goes well with an avocado. I will be posting some of my favorite avocado recipes for you to try, if you have a favorite avocado recipe I would love to hear about it!
