Chickpea-avocado toast

This take on popular avocado toast is a gut health powerhouse. Avocados give you fiber, healthy fats and potassium to help promote healthy digestion. Chickpeas supply more fiber and protein to keep you feeling full until your next meal. Plus, combining these two ingredients creates a nice texture for the otherwise smooth spread.
