I have been looking forward to making this curried chickpea avocado salad all week. I usually don?t spend too much time on lunches, I am a lazy luncher. And I have no excuse because I work from home. Nothing I lunch on needs to be transportable or accommodating in the least. I default to the leftovers, mostly because I fear food waste.
We waste a ridiculous amount of food in this country. I know adults do it to, but I feel as though the amount of food we waste has increased exponentially since we had kids. It?s disgusting how much food they throw away.

So I take upon myself to be the lunch martyr and eat ALL the things my mini cohabitants have returned home in lunch boxes or have left languishing on their plates without even a taste. I probably sound like a mom cliche, but I?ll say it anyways, that kind of waste wasn?t an option when I was a kid! This week week I decided I deserved a break from playing cleanup crew. They can eat their own leftovers. I?ll make myself special little lunch, one of my favorite lunches ? curried chickpea avocado salad on a piece of Ezekiel toast.

This curried chickpea avocado salad so versatile and quick to prepare. It literally takes me less than 10 minutes to pull this together.
