Soooo…

I’ve been creating recipes on this blog for over 6 years now. 6 YEARS! I know, it’s crazy to me too. Trust me, I’m grateful every day that I took the chance on blogging. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. But tell me this- how is it that I haven’t mash together avocado and chickpeas yet??!!!!! 6+ years and I’m just getting around to this recipe.

This avocado chickpea mash is a great vegetarian option for those trying to reduce the amount of meat they eat. From my experience, it’ll keep good for 2-3 days stored in a covered container in the refrigerator.

Even if you’re not vegetarian I highly recommend adding this recipe to your meal plan rotation. It’s healthy and great way to up your protein and fiber intake.
