If you’re like us and buy avocados by the Costco sized bags, I’m sure you can agree that there could never be enough avocado recipes! Especially since avocados only stay ripe for like what…5 minutes?! So when that time comes and you gotta use up all those avocados, this avocado crab bowl is a perfect quick and easy recipe for you!
I really don’t think there’s a more finicky ingredient then avocado, where they go from not ripe, ripe, to trash in about 2-3 days, so it’s really great to have a variety of recipes ready to go during your window of opportunity!
But even though avocados are ‘difficult’, they really do have some awesome benefits to them! They possess one of the healthiest fats for low-carb/keto or just general dieting and are packed with over 20 essential vitamins and minerals, making it pretty much your natural daily vitamin pill!
And lucky for you, this avocado crab bowl recipe is super easy to make and a great way to use up those ripe avocados in no time!
We start with cutting the avocados and scooping out all the meat. If you’re interested in how we cut avocados, here is a quick write up. From there, we just combine all the ingredient together in a bowl and there you go! You just made yourself an avocado crab bowl!
As for the dish itself, the mixture of the avocado, crab meat and Kewpie Mayo tastes like a California roll in a bowl but only at ~4g net carbs per serving! You also can add some cream cheese in there to really make it similar to a California roll in a bowl!
For this recipe, the only special ingredients you would need are Kewpie Mayo which you can pick up on Amazon or a local Asian supermarket.
Please note that using regular mayonnaise such as Hellman’s or Best Foods will change to taste profile of the dish, so use at your own discretion.
Now, let’s get started!
