avocado

how many carbs do you count for avocado??? just got a smallish one from tesco
thanks x

Oh avocado yummy are they reduced? I normally count 3 for a half medium .... What does everyone do with the rest if they don't eat the whole one as they don't last very long without going brown?

no not reduced just fancied one - was trying to up my carbs lol. so only 3 thats not bad and 6 for a whole - ill just eat the lot then

I just stick the other half in a tupperware dish in the fridge - although i seem to remember that squeezing lemon juice over it helps - or am I making that up?

 

[Seraphine]

Lemon helps, but another tip is to leave the stone in the half you are going to store - as soon as you take it out, it will go brown.

I count it as 6 for a whole one. I have a problem with avocado's in our house their perfect range from unripe to brown and yucky seems to be a bout 10 minutes.

I like to eat them out of the shell Vicky, just fill the hole with a couple of drops of Tabasco or worcester and mayo. Yum Yum
