I was thinking of slacking off the avocados for a bit, but Caroline, darling woman that she is, brought me FOUR from town the other day! Do I have the most awesome blog readers or what?!
This morning, I decided to do a little nutritional comparison between a whole avocado and the two tablespoons of peanut butter or shredded cheese that I normally put on my tortilla (or English muffin) in the morning. In terms of fat and calories, the three were neck and neck, but the avocado has tons of fiber and vitamin C. Add in the fresh lime juice and minced garlic, and guacamole ends up being a much more nutritious (and filling) breakfast than I usually have.
As my best friend would say, NOM NOM NOM!
