You can have your fat and eat it too.  Healthy avocado tops off a wonderful protein-packed hummus spread, with layers of deep, well-rounded flavor, that will leave you happy and satisfied.  Garbanzo beans are a perfect blend of steady carbs, adequate fiber, and palate-pleasing protein, so don’t wait any longer–indulge in that Vitamin A and iron.  Strength never tasted better!

Balanced fats, proteins, and carbohydrates--the perfect triangle!

Ingredients:

1 can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

¼ - ½ cup olive oil**

1/8 teaspoon celery salt

1/8 teaspoon sea salt

2 teaspoons parsley

Additional Ingredients:

Pita bread

Fresh avocado slices

Preparation:

In a food processor, blend all ingredients, stopping once or twice to scrape ingredients off the sides. Spread onto pita triangles and garnish with a thin slice of avocado. Dig in!

*If you juice your lemon through a juicer, use ½. If you don’t have a juicer, use juice from 1 whole lemon.

**Start by adding ¼ cup and gradually add more for a thinner hummus.
