Chickpea Avocado Lemon Mash

I love avocado and this recipe is great for lunch and packs a ton of nutrients. I also found that you can store any of the leftovers in a glass container and it keeps well for the next day.

Ingredients 15 oz. can chickpeas

1 ripe avocado

Juice from 1/2 lemon

1 bunch of fresh cilantro

Salt & pepper to taste

Optional add-ins: any other fresh herbs

Optional toppings: sprouts, tomato, spinach, green onion, etc.

Bread : I used sprout bread since it’s one of the healthiest breads

Directions Rinse and drain chickpeas and place in a bowl. Mash with a potato masher or fork. Cut avocado and scoop it out into the same bowl. Mash again to combine with the chickpeas. Add lemon juice, optional fresh herbs and stir. Salt & pepper to taste if desired. Toast your bread if you like that warm crunch like I do!
