What this plate gives you
A pear is one of the highest-fibre fruits in the library, about 6 g of the snack’s 7 g, a quarter of a 2,000-calorie day’s 28 g; the fifteen grams of almonds, about 12 nuts, are the 8 g of fat and most of the protein. At 188 calories it is 9 percent of that day. It is a pocket snack that needs nothing but a napkin.
Swaps
- Apple: about 2 g less fibre.
- Walnuts: about the same numbers.
- Double the almonds: 90 calories more.
Keeping it
A ripe pear keeps three days in the fridge; almonds, months in a jar.
