Avocado and Hummus Toast: 2 Ways!

So, the summer is pretty much here and the school year is coming to an end. I can hardly believe it’s almost June?!  Where did the time go? Summer for us means sleeping in, relaxing a bit more but also keeping busy and entertaining the kids. We’re keeping it simple this summer and have just signed up for art classes and karate. I say, let them enjoy the summer. .  but this also means (for me) planning play dates, a big shopping trip to Michael’s (I am so not craftsy but I love this store because they have so much stuff you can get there for the kids activity-wise), the Farmer’s Market (my fave!), beautiful, gorgeous weather here in Washington and quicker meals.

 

With the kids home with me during the summer and keeping busy, I won’t have a lot of time to cook; mainly lunch. And, although they probably wouldn’t mind if I did, I’m not going to give them chicken nuggets everyday.  Ever since I discovered making homemade Chimichurri was so easy, I’ve been constantly making this and keeping some stocked away in my fridge. . .

 

For moments and easy snacks like this.

I absolutely love all of the delicious flavors going on here on this little toast. And if you have the chimichurri sauce on hand, you can whip this up in no time. And next time, I must try this because I also always have kale in my fridge too.

Don’t like avocados?  Or chimichurri sauce? Give this one a try. My girls would deconstruct their toasts but eat everything so I’ve learned to just give them toast with hummus and the cucumbers, carrots and sunflower nuts on the side. Hey, as long as they are eating it, it’s ok by me. So, if you are looking for a quick, light and healthy snack or meal, give this one a try!

 

I am currently obsessed with sunflower nuts. Can’t get enough of them. I think they are so delicious and add something unique to this extremely quick and easy snack or meal.

 

I hope you enjoy!
