Ingredients
  

1 ripe avocado

1 cup cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

2 slices whole grain bread

1 tablespoon fresh parsley (or cilantro), chopped

Sliced radishes or cherry tomatoes for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chickpeas: In a mixing bowl, mash the drained chickpeas with a fork or potato masher until they resemble a chunky paste. Leave some whole for texture.

    Mix Flavors: Add the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the mashed chickpeas. Mix well until thoroughly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

      Toast the Bread: In a toaster or on a pan over medium heat, toast the whole grain bread slices until golden brown and crispy.

        Prepare the Avocado: While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it lightly with a fork, leaving some chunks for texture. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

          Assemble the Toast: Spread a generous layer of the mashed avocado on each slice of toasted bread. Top with the chickpea mixture, spreading it evenly over the avocado.

            Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley or cilantro over the top. If desired, add sliced radishes or cherry tomatoes for an extra pop of flavor and color.

              Enjoy: Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
