Just one thing... you have to like avocados? If so, read on for a delicious avocado recipe, one of the top foods that help us to eat calories and lose weight while getting the required good fats we need to keep up the development of our mind and body.
Avocado Facts:
A whole medium avocado contains approximately 21 grams of fat, though most of it is healthy monounsaturated fat. Avocados also have 60% more potassium than bananas. They are rich in B vitamins, as well as vitamin E and vitamin K. They have the highest fiber content of any fruit - including 75% insoluble and 25% soluble fiber.
This recipe is from the Wild Rose Cookbook:
