Another ingredient that is healthy in this recipe is avocado. This superfood has slightly more potassium than bananas, a fruit known for being potassium rich. It's also your source of healthy fats. Often people try to avoid or go low fat, as they think it's bad for them or makes them fat. However, we do need fat in our diet and these ‘healthy fats’ are heart healthy as have monounsaturated fatty acids. Plus, they will help to keep you feeling satisfied for longer and therefore support weight loss.
With all these benefits in mind, this is the perfect healthy snack to keep you going between meals! The taste is delicious and can be seasoned to taste and the texture will be a lovely creamy mix. Give the recipe a try and when eating it, remember to have it with lots of vegetable sticks and a few tortilla chips. Enjoy!
