The Ultimate Avocado Toast

Ingredients:

- Toast

- Avocado

- Dry-cured Beldi olives (found at the Whole Foods olive bar), roughly chopped

- Sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped

- Chickpeas

- Garlic powder

- Cilantro, roughly chopped

- Parsley, roughly chopped

- Lemon

Instructions:

1. As I mentioned above, you have the choice of either roasting or sautéing the chickpeas. If you want to roast: preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and add chickpeas. Spray chickpeas with olive oil spray or lightly coat in olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Roast for about 30 - 40 min, stirring halfway.

2. To sautée the chickpeas: spray a frying pan with olive oil spray or lightly coat in olive oil and add chickpeas. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper and sauteé over medium-high heat for about 10 min, stirring occasionally so chickpeas have time to get crispy on the sides.

3. Top toast with avocado, then chickpeas, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, cilantro, parsley and finish with a squeeze of lemon.
