What better way to eat the rainbow then by gathering up every vegetable you can find and go to town! Avocado bean salad is a great way to bring all these interesting tastes together in one place. This is actually one of my favourite lunch boxes – it’s kind of cool in an understated way; it’s just a lunch box that is packed to the brim with things you want to eat. That hummus doesn’t have to stay over that side either – bridge the gap, bring it over, get messy. Vegetables, toasted chickpeas, hummus… bliss.
Not only does it taste amazing, but making it is even easier! Just throw all your favourite vegetables in a lunch box over a solid base – we went with kidney beans, but you could go with rice, pasta – anything you like really. Giving it a bit of body will help you stay fuller for longer, while the vegetables should have your vitamins and minerals sorted. Toasted chickpeas help give some filling earthiness and have a great textural quality to them. With the hummus getting mixed about, you’re in for a real treat with this lunch box – every bite is something different! Finish up with some coconut yoghurt and muesli, and cover with berries for a sweet finish. Avocado bean salad is a real winner, and healthy to boot! Eating the rainbow = all the vitamins. So good you guys 😂
