Keto Approved
Guacamole
0.60g net carbs per 2 tbsp
Spoon it on freely, since a 2 tbsp serving runs just 0.6 g net carbs alongside 4.4 g of fat from the avocado. Watch for store brands that sneak in sugar or starchy fillers, since those can push the carbs higher than a homemade batch.

Good to Know
Restaurant versions sometimes stretch the recipe with sour cream, peas, or even a pinch of sugar, so the cleanest options list avocado, lime, salt, onion, and cilantro and not much else. Wholly Guacamole single-serve cups and Trader Joe's Avocado's Number Guacamole both keep the ingredient list simple and travel well in a cooler. Skip it as a chip dip and spoon it onto eggs, burgers, or grilled chicken instead, since the tortilla chips are where the real carbs hide.
Is Guacamole Keto? The Full Answer
Guacamole contains 0.60g net carbs per 2 tbsp (2.60g total carbs minus 2.00g fiber). Spoon it on freely, since a 2 tbsp serving runs just 0.6 g net carbs alongside 4.4 g of fat from the avocado. Watch for store brands that sneak in sugar or starchy fillers, since those can push the carbs higher than a homemade batch.
On a standard ketogenic diet, most people target 20-25g net carbs per day. A single serving uses 3% of a 20g daily carb limit. That makes Guacamole a reliable keto staple.
Measure Your Ketone Levels
A blood ketone meter reads beta-hydroxybutyrate from a finger prick, the marker that defines nutritional ketosis at 0.5 to 3.0 mmol/L. Urine strips measure acetoacetate instead, which drops off once you are fat-adapted. Keto-Mojo makes a blood meter.
