You just need about five minutes, a ripe avocado, some chickpeas and a healthy appetite. This Avocado Chickpea Power “Bowl” is a great solution to the morning predicament we often run into – short on time and hungry! Sure, you can grab a piece of fruit before you rush out the door. But, if you need a little more than that, give this guy a try. You’ll be starting your day with a healthy dose of plant protein, complex carbohydrates, fiber, fat, and powerful phytochemicals.
