Overview

We love toast in basically every form – peanut butter and honey, cinnamon sugar, bruschetta, and of course, Avocado Toast. We also love chickpeas and how versatile they are! In this recipe, we took the classic Avocado Toast and added some crispy spiced chickpeas for a satisfying crunch; then, we took it a step further and tried drizzling a slice with hot sauce, or enjoying with microgreens. You’ll be pleased to know that both options are equally delicious.

Toast the bread.
Slice avocado and use a fork to mash and spread it on the toast.
Garnish: squeeze fresh lime juice over mashed avocado to add flavor. Top with crispy chickpeas, then add sprouts, hot sauce, and a drizzle of organic honey, as desired.
