Islander Snack

·         ½ cup cottage cheese
·         ¼ cup pineapple
·         2 Tbsp Sliced Raw Almond
·         Cinnamon to taste

Throw it all together in a bowl and enjoy!

Avocado Hummus

·         15oz Chickpeas (canned or fresh)
·         3 Tbsp Olive Oil
·         1.5 Tbsp Tahini
·         3 Tbsp Lime Juice
·         1 Clove Garlic
·         2 Medium Avocados
·         Salt, Pepper & Cumin to taste
·         Cilantro & red pepper for topping (or I use jalapeno & cilantro olive oil drizzle)

Pulse first 5 ingredients together until smooth, then season.  Add avocados and pulse until smooth.  Taste to see if you need more seasoning.  Serve with toppings or drizzle of olive oil, veggies and/or chips of some sort.  **I use a food processor to make it easy and quick**

Chicken Avocado Salad

·         1 Avocado
·         ¾ cup greek yogurt
·         1 Tbsp Lemon juice
·         1 Green onion
·         1 tsp Dill
·         1 tsp Garlic Powder
·         Salt & Pepper
·         3 cups cooked chicken breast (shredded or coarsely chopped)
·         ½ cup diced celery
·         ½ cup slivered raw almonds (optional)
·         Lettuce & tomato & bread (or wrap)

In a food processor, pulse avocado until smooth.  Add in the next 6 ingredients and blend until thoroughly mixed.  Toss the chicken, celery and almonds in with the yogurt mixture (add more seasoning if needed), then divide among rolls topped with lettuce & tomato.
