Wholesome and Delightful: Chickpea Avocado Toast Recipe

Creating a Delectable Chickpea Avocado Toast

Today, I’m excited to share my latest creation for a healthy and delicious snack – Chickpea Avocado Toast. This recipe is perfect for a quick and satisfying bite to eat, whether you’re looking for a midday pick-me-up or a wholesome breakfast option.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients: a can of chickpeas (240g, drained), a ripe avocado (150g), a lemon (1), cherry tomatoes (100g), fresh basil leaves (10g), olive oil (15ml), salt, pepper, red chili flakes, and whole grain bread slices (4).

To prepare this dish, you will need the following kitchen tools:

• knife
• cutting board
• bowl
• fork
• grater
• toaster

Start by draining the chickpeas and placing them in a bowl. Mash them using a fork until you achieve a chunky consistency. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into the bowl with the mashed chickpeas. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the mixture and blend everything together until well combined.

Next, chop the cherry tomatoes and basil leaves finely and add them to the chickpea-avocado mixture. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and red chili flakes to taste. Mix everything together until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Toast the whole grain bread slices until golden and crispy. Spoon the chickpea-avocado mixture on top of each toast slice, spreading it evenly. Garnish with extra basil leaves and a sprinkle of red chili flakes for an added kick.

The total weight of the cooked Chickpea Avocado Toast is approximately 650g, with 4 servings. Each serving weighs around 163g, averaging at 250 calories per portion.

One clever tip for this recipe is to add a touch of balsamic glaze on top of the toast for a tangy twist. This will elevate the flavor profile and give your snack an extra burst of deliciousness.

I encourage you to give this Chickpea Avocado Toast a try and feel free to customize it with your favorite ingredients. Enjoy this nutritious and tasty snack whenever you’re in need of a quick and easy treat!
