What this plate gives you
Twenty-five grams of almonds is about 145 calories and 13 g of fat, which is all of the fat here, and 5 g of protein; the orange is the 21 g of carbohydrate and half the 6 g of fibre. At 206 calories it is 10 percent of a 2,000-calorie day. Almonds are measured because a handful is anything from 20 to 40 g; twenty-five grams is about 20 nuts.
Swaps
- Walnuts: about the same calories, more fat.
- An apple: about the same numbers.
- Roasted salted almonds: the same calories, more salt.
Keeping it
Nuts keep for months in a sealed jar; an orange, a week on the counter.
