Lately I've been eating this super easy dish a lot! You only need four ingredients and I find that it is great for lunch or even a post workout snack. I mean, who am I to say when you can eat it? I bet it would make a darn yummy breakfast too! 

Ingredients: 
2 slices of whole grain wheat toast
1 organic avocado
roasted red pepper hummus (or hummus flavor of choice) 
4 or so mint leaves, chopped

Peaked my Pinterest: Avocado Toast

I don't know about you, but I am in love with avocados! I eat one a day and literally have to stop myself from eating more then that. It's an addiction :) When I saw this pin on Pinterest I knew I was going to snoop around and find some new ways to enjoy my avocados. I am so glad I did!

I give you avocado toast (makes a great breakfast or lunch):

Ingredients: 
- 1 ripe organic avocado
- 2 slices of whole wheat bread or English muffin (you can sub with gluten free)
- Red pepper flakes
- 1 fresh organic lemon

Directions

1) Cut avocado in 1/2, remove pit. Squeeze avocado into bowl and discard the outside.

2) Squeeze 1/2 to 1 full lemon onto your avocado. It's completely up to you how much to add. I start with half and then usually end up adding a bit from the other half.

3) Add red pepper flakes. You can use as little or as much as you want. The more you use, the spicier it is!

4) Using a fork, mash it all up then place it on top of toast.

That's it! Super easy and super yummy meal alternative. You could even make 1/2 of this as a mid-day snack!
