Some study shows that something like 80 million avocados are eaten on super bowel night. If you missed out, no worries here is my tried and true recipe for some good old guacamole, try it this week!
3 ripe avocados
1/4 c red onion
2 cloves garlic
juice of 1 lime
handful of cilantro
1 jalapeno
sea salt (to taste) remember lets keep this heart healthy too much salt is never good!
Blend all of the ingredients in the food processor and there you go, a healthy dip to eat with blue corn chips or better yet raw veggies!
Studies show that avocados are a super food because they:
help control diabetes
lower cholesterol
excellent source of potassium
high in heart healthy monounsaturated fats
linked to cancer prevention
major source of antioxidants
aid in weight control
a vitamin E powerhouse
Increases nutrient absorption when eaten with other foods
If your goal is to lose weight, keep your portions under control because avocados are a fat, which increases calorie content.
