Summary: Enjoy these delicious recipes that feature avocado as the main ingredient.
Although considered a fruit, the avocado is unique from other fruits in that it is filled with healthy fats rather than carbohydrates. Avocados are a great addition to any diet as, along with their healthy fats, they provide nearly 20 essential nutrients, including fiber, potassium, Vitamin E, B-vitamins, and folic acid. Another unique fact? They contain more potassium than a banana, which are well known as a good source for potassium.
Avocados can lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels, help you absorb fat soluble plant nutrients, and contain antioxidants. Some even say that avocados can help you lose weight because they can increase the satiety of your meal, leaving you with more time between meals and less snacking.
Here are eight delicious recipes to incorporate avocados into your own diet:
