Avocado and Mozzarella Salad
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
The creamy avocado is rightly considered a superfood: in addition to cell-protecting vitamin E, it scores points with its abundance of healthy unsaturated fatty acids. Tomatoes supply us with lycopene, an antioxidant that, just like vitamin E, protects the cells from free radicals.
For a vegan version of the delicious low-carb snack, you can easily replace the cheese with a handful of nuts or seeds of your choice. In terms of taste, pine nuts or walnuts, for example, go really well with this snack. Walnuts are also convincing because of their high content of omega-3 fatty acids.
