Avocados

Avocados originate from Central Mexico, a member of the flowering plant family Lauraceae. It can be described botanically as a large berry containing one large seed inside.

Avocados could be described as a super food for their health promoting benefits. It is a rich source of nutrients, vitamin K, B5, foliate, vitamin C, vitamin A, to name a few. It is keto-friendly in respect of carbs and fibre; it is also high in healthy fats, phytonutrients as carotenoids (fat soluble) and phytosterols.

They are a popular breakfast in the west as a spread on toast and in the likes of Peru and Chile they are popular in the form of slices on toasted bread or plain bread for breakfast. They are also popular in guacamole.
