Is avocado good for meal planning?

Avocados are higher in calories than most fruits because of their healthy fat content. A whole avocado is closer to 320 kcal — easy to forget when adding to toast or salads.

Half an avocado is a good baseline portion that pairs well with eggs, salads and bowls.

How to use avocado in a meal plan

  • Avocado on toast with poached egg
  • Sliced into salads or grain bowls
  • Mashed with lime and chilli as guacamole
  • Diced over chilli or a rice bowl
