Guacamole Avocado Pasta

This was such a quick dish, was ready in about 15 mins!

You will need:

1 avocado (if making for more than one)

Splash lemon juice

1 small clove garlic

Chopped cherry tomatoes

Crack black pepper

Cook the pasta as to the packet instructions. I used whole wheat high protein pasta. This was actually cheaper than regular pasta in the supermarket! I usually find the more health benefitting foods are the cheaper ones! 

Once pasta is cooked, drain and rerurn back to pan. Add a little olive oil and heat on low heat. Add the chopped garlic and fry for about a minute before taking off heat. Mash up avocado in separate bowl and add to the pasta. Then add the lemon juice, pepper and chopped tomatoes. For an extra kick I added some fresh chopped chilli to my portion. And that is it!!

Avocado, Roast Chicken and Cheese Wrap

This lunch worked out better than I thought (albeit the boy didn't eat a great deal of this!) but anyway, I was surprised with how good this turned out.

I used a George Foreman grill for this, however I'm sure a regular griddle pan or frying pan would work as well.

For this I used:

1/2 avocado

A few pieces of leftover roast chicken

A bit of grated cheddar cheese

1 wholemeal tortilla wrap

Method

First you will need to mash up the avocado half into the centre of your wrap. Then add the chicken.

Then layer the grated cheese. 

And fold up. I will admit I'm terrible at folding tortillas and folded mine the wrong way! But as it was going in the grill to be flattened, it didn't really matter! 

Toast in grill until the cheese has melted and the visible toasted lines appear! (If that even makes sense!!)

I then cut it into fingers, which I then tore into smaller pieces as he didn't want to bite properly (probably his teeth!) but overall he did eat more than I thought he would! 

This would make a great lunchbox snack as the filling stays inside the wraps after being toasted!
