What's in a typical serving

Mashed avocado with lime, onion and cilantro served with veggie sticks, a vegan and keto-friendly snack.

  • 150g Avocado
  • Tomato, Red Onion
  • Lime Juice
  • Cilantro, Chili
  • Cucumber and Carrot Sticks

How to make it

  1. Halve the avocado, remove the stone and scoop 150 g flesh into a bowl.
  2. Mash it with a fork, leaving some texture.
  3. Finely chop the tomato, red onion, cilantro and chili and stir them in.
  4. Season with lime juice and a pinch of salt.
  5. Cut the cucumber and carrot into sticks and serve them alongside for dipping.

How to make it lighter

  1. Serve it with cucumber, carrot and pepper sticks rather than tortilla chips, which can add more calories than the dip itself.
  2. Treat it as a measured portion: spoon some into a small bowl instead of eating from the serving dish.
  3. Use it in place of butter or mayonnaise on toast or in a wrap rather than on top of them.

How we calculated these values

  • Calories and macros are Sporty catalog estimates for one typical serving, calculated from USDA FoodData Central values for the listed ingredient amounts.
  • The serving weight (330 g) is estimated from those ingredients; the per-100 g values and the portion calculator are worked out from it.
  • Walking times use the Compendium of Physical Activities: 3.5 MET for comfortable and 4.8 MET for brisk walking, for a 70 kg adult (kcal per minute = MET × 3.5 × kg ÷ 200).
  • Vitamins, minerals and allergens are estimated from the same ingredients with USDA FoodData Central values; % DV uses the US FDA daily values.
  • Diet labels come from the ingredients. Real values change with the recipe, the amount of oil and the portion, so treat every number as an estimate.
