15 Oct Bruschetta Stuffed Avocado
If you need an incredible cold lunch idea, you have to throw together this bruschetta stuffed avocado. Loaded with quality satiating fats and protein to keep you full throughout the afternoon. Bruschetta can be homemade or store bought (as long as it is made with quality olive oil over cheap canola/grapeseed oil). Store it in the fridge for the week to toss over salad, fish, protein, or veggies.
Avocado is loaded with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants – all of which give you energy, help you fight infection and assist in controlling inflammation. Inflammation is the root cause of most major illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes and more. Fiber cooperates with your body to eliminate waste and toxins. The fat in avocado is considered healthy because it is a monounsaturated oleic acid, making it fairly stable, thus decreasing the risk of oxidation and inflammation
Garlic has incredible anti-viral properties that also regulates blood sugar and fights colds.
Tomatoes are antioxidant rich and full of vitamins C, A, B2, folate, and chromium.
