Is Avocado Good for You?

Avocados are my favorite! They’re so versatile. You can have them with eggs, make avocado toast, or add them to smoothies for a super creamy texture.

By incorporating avocado into your diet, you’re not just adding a delicious ingredient, you’re making a wise decision for your health. Avocados are a great source of healthy fats, which can significantly improve your overall well-being. However, since avocados are high in fat, it is essential to eat them in moderation.

Avocados mostly contain unsaturated fats, especially monounsaturated fats, which can help keep cholesterol levels healthy when they replace foods high in saturated fats. Olive oil is also a good source of monounsaturated fats.

How much avocado should you eat in a meal?

  • It’s suggested to have around one-third to one-half of a medium avocado per meal.
  • This amount gives you a good mix of healthy fats and nutrients without too many calories.
  • By understanding the right portion size, you can enjoy the benefits of avocados without worrying about overconsumption.

Ingredients for simple Avocado Omelette and Preparation Tips

Avocado Omelette Ingredients List

  • 2 eggs + 2 tablespoons water—beaten eggs contain a lot of protein, and when cooked, the protein molecules can stick together, making the eggs rubbery. Adding water helps the proteins spread and slows the cooking process, keeping the eggs soft and fluffy.
  • 1/3 of a medium avocado, sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh spinach and 1/4 cup chopped tomato
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

How to Make a Perfect Avocado Omelette

  • Slice the avocado and chop the fresh spinach and tomato.
  • In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and add 2 tbsp of water.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Whisk the mixture until the eggs are well beaten and slightly frothy.
  • Add the chopped spinach and tomato and mix well.
  • Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  • Pour the beaten eggs, spinach, and tomato into the skillet, tilting the pan to ensure the eggs spread evenly.
  • Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to set and the center is still slightly runny.
  • Add the sliced avocado on top of the omelette. 
  • Carefully fold one-half of the omelet over the filling.
  • Continue to cook for another minute or until the eggs are fully set and the filling is warmed through.
  • Slide the omelette onto a plate and serve immediately with crusty bread or toast. 

Quick Tip!

For a creamier texture, add a splash of milk to your beaten eggs before cooking.

Storage Suggestions

Let the omelette cool to room temperature to prevent it from getting soggy. Store it in an airtight container. Keep the omelette in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place it in a microwave-safe dish, cover with a damp paper towel, and microwave on medium in 10-second intervals until warm. You can also reheat it in a skillet on low heat.

Final Thoughts

Adding foods such as avocado, spinach, tomato, and eggs to your meals can help create a balanced and healthy diet. These ingredients contain vital nutrients like healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals.

Even though avocado is good for you, it’s important to watch how much you eat. Eating avocado in moderation means you still get the good stuff without eating too many calories.

Generally, choosing healthy foods, being mindful of portion sizes, and including a variety of nutritious foods in your meals can promote overall well-being and make you feel great. For further information, feel free to explore my Nutrition Corner page.
