In need of a quick and delicious snack... then search no more!!! Avocados are a great source of healthy for you fats that can help keep you not only feeling fuller for longer but also satisfy that snack craving.
Try this fresh Guacamole recipe for a spring pick me up! My own Fat & Skinny Guide Recipe!
Smash one avocado and spritz with a wedge of lime.
Lightly sprinkle in garlic or onion salt, cracker pepper, and a bit of cumin to taste.
Halve a 1/2 pint cherry tomatoes and mix with a fork.
Serve with whole wheat pita chips or your favorite baked chip brand. Remember - veggies also make great dippers so try not to over do the chips or challenge yourself to just eat one chip and the rest with vegetables!
The trick to snacking and defining your diet is to eat something you and enjoy that is also good for you and satisfying! Otherwise, you may just end up searching for something else to eat after...

I love avocados! In sushi, in sandwiches, as a dip, topped on salad - all great. I agree avocados do help one feel full due in part to the majority of good fats - the monounsaturated fats; but don't forget that they also help increase HDL (lowers heart dieseases) and decrease LDL (bad fats).
