I'm not a food blogger but....this was too great not to share!

While looking for some different healthy recipes on Pinterest, I came across this: Chickpea Smash!! 
 My middle daughter and I made this last year but I forgot all about it!  It is super easy to make and so delicious that I had to share...it's low carb & super healthy...the only change I made from the recipe I found was to add a little less pesto.   So, if you're looking for something a little different to eat, go ahead and whip this up...enjoy!!!
I LOVE these low carb pitas...
I always toast them and use them like a taco shell...
These are all of the ingredients you need...

RECIPE:  CHICK PEA SMASH

1 CAN OF CHICK PEAS, RINSED
1 RIPE AVACADO
1/2 JUICE OF LEMON
PESTO to taste ( I used 2 teaspoons)
Mash chick peas, add avocado and mash,
add juice of lemon & pesto and stir it all together
serve on toast, pita, wrap or greens
Organic baby spinach is a nice add on...
Mash up the chick peas with a fork...
VOILA!!
Bon appetit!
