Ingredients
  

  • 1 avocado peeled and pit removed
  • 1/2 cup cooked chickpeas canned or home-cooked

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Start by toasting your whole grain bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy. This will provide the perfect base for your creamy toppings.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chickpeas, kosher salt, and lemon juice. Use a fork to mash them together slightly, ensuring some chickpeas remain whole for texture.
  3. In another bowl, add the peeled avocado. Mash it with a fork until smooth, but still slightly chunky for a delightful texture.
  4. Mix the mashed avocado with the chickpea mixture. Stir in the chopped cilantro, adjusting seasoning to taste.
  5. Spread a generous layer of the chickpea and avocado mixture onto each slice of toasted bread.
  6. Top with additional cilantro if desired, and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture. Enjoy your wholesome Chickpea Avocado Toast!

Notes

  • Store the chickpea and avocado mixture in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • To prevent browning, add an extra layer of lemon juice on top.
  • Toast bread fresh just before serving for the best texture.
