Notes

 

* I recommend weighing the avocados. You’ll use 15 oz. or about 3 medium size avocados. Keep in mind the point values can vary depending on the size and the avocado pits can make a huge difference in the amount of avocado you actually get from a medium one. Again, I highly recommend weighing the avocado to get more for the point value rather than tracking it as 3 medium size avocados.  If you’re in the market for a food scale see the link below for the one I have and love!
