 This recipe is lower in sugar (YAY!), but it is higher in fat. The good thing is that the fat comes from the avocado, which is very healthy for you. If you want your salad to have less fat, use less avocado and substitute for more lettuce, which is low in calories and fat. However, running the analysis on caloriecount.about.com, my fat intake for the day is spot on. So, I'm not worried! :)
