Avocado toast is one of the easiest meals to quickly whip up at home. It is a healthy option too than fast food breakfast as it contains a huge number of useful nutrients and antioxidants. As long as you stick to this simple, low calorie ingredients, then you should be good. Keep in mind, whatever you add to it, is an added calories. I like this option better than butter because an ounce of avocado provides just 45 calories compared to over 204 calories per ounce of unsalted butter.
