This week’s food of the week is almonds. One ounce of almonds (23 nuts) contains 163 calories, 14 grams of fat, 6 grams of carbohydrates, and 6 grams of protein.

Here are some benefits: 3.5 grams of fiber, good source of protein, good source of vitamin E, and the fat is mostly unsaturated.

The downside: high in fat and calories, so not a great diet food.
