Avocado Pea Mash combines the rich creaminess (healthy fat) of avocado with the protein of green peas. Serve on whole-grain toast with raw veggies for a complete and nutritious meal.
Place garlic, parsley, peas, a pinch of salt and ½ cup water in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until peas are tender, about 5 minutes for fresh peas, or about 2-3 minutes for frozen/thawed. Drain, reserving any left over cooking liquid.
Add the pea mixture, avocado pieces, lemon juice and cayenne pepper to a food processor. Process until completely blended, but still a bit chunky. Add reserved cooking liquid or water (1 tablespoon at a time) to thin if needed. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
