Next Level Protein Avocado Toast

- 4 slices of The Little Northern Bakehouse gluten-free bread, toasted

- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

- pinch of cayenne pepper to taste (optional)
- Superseed Sprinkle: (mix in a bowl)
- 2 tablespoons of chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons hemp hearts
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Directions:
In a food processor, combine the precooked edamame beans, avocado and process until smooth. Alternatively, you can combine avocado with the edamame in a cereal bowl and smash with a fork to blend.

Why go for the Next Level Protein Avocado Toast?
The answer is… you guessed it! PROTEIN!!
Avocados have very little protein, maybe up to 2 grams of protein per avocado and a good nutritional serving is about 15 grams of protein per meal. A cup of cooked edamame has 17 grams! So… do you see where I’m going with this?
That does this mean? Well, basically, if you’ve been eating ONLY avocado spread out on toast as a meal for either breakfast or lunch or in-between meals as a snack – you’re just not getting enough protein at that mealtime. You just can’t cheat with nutrition. When you miss out on important nutrients like protein your body will feel it and have incredible effects on your energy level, your strength etc.
So what’s the solution to your tasty lunch ever?
When you add edamame beans to the avocado and make up a spread – you get tons of protein!!! Win Win Win!!
This makes a few slices of Avocado Toast a complete meal!!
