Focus on healthy fats much? I sure do. Healthy fats are crucial. And with my physical training these days, I’m really making sure I pack them in. Avocados are a great source of fiber, potassium, and vitamin C, and the fats in avocados are known to fight inflammation. Eggs are a nutritional jackpot of vitamins and minerals. They’re also a great source of choline which is what your body uses to break down fats for energy. So if you are an athlete, this dish is perfect for you! If you’re not an athlete, it’s still perfect 🙂
