Ingredients
  

Avocado Toast

  • 4 slices whole grain sprouted bread or bread of choice - see notes
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor optional

Crispy Chickpeas

  • 1 19oz can chickpeas, rinsed, and drained
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp hot chili powder or more to taste I like to use a lot!
  • seasoning salt & pepper to taste

Optional Toppings - *See notes

Instructions
 

Crispy Chickpeas

  • Add the chickpeas onto a baking sheet and gently pat them with a towel or paper towel to remove any extra moisture.
  • Toast the chickpeas in a pan on medium heat with oil for about 7-10 mins or until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  • Add the garlic powder, hot chili powder, smoked paprika and nutritional yeast. Cook for another min stirring constantly. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Avocado

  • Meanwhile, toast your bread and mash up the avocado, lemon juice, salt and pepper.

Assembly

  • Add the avocado mixture on your toast, then top with the toasted chickpeas. Add any extra toppings you like and enjoy!

Notes

Bread: You can use any bread you like. A nice fresh sourdough has the best flavor in my opinion! Using a sprouted grain bread will add more protein to this breakfast. 
Toppings: I love to add extra toppings for flavor. Use any toppings you like but here are some of my favourites. 
  • chili crispy oil
  • sprouts or micro greens
  • pickled onions
  • balsamic reduction
  • everything but the bagel seasoning
  • fresh herbs like mint, basil, cilantro 
  • sliced green onions
Feel free to play around with the seasonings. Just make sure to add olive oil, salt and pepper as the base then add any other spices you'd like. These are SO good!
