206/365 Avocado instead of Mayo

Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,

I have recently discovered how awesome avocado is on sandwiches. Though I tend to put both avocado and mayo on mine since I don't have much fat in my diet anyway, avocado is a great substitute for mayo (even my new favorite Olive Oil Mayo from various manufacturers).

Here's how the two stack up:
30g Avocado: 50 calories, 4.5g total fat, 1g fiber, 140mg potassium
15g Kraft Olive Oil Mayo: 45 calories, 4g total fat, 0g fiber, 0mg potassium

It's healthier, has more taste, and is probably more agreeable to most than mayonnaise.

In health,

Lauren
