Garbanzo Guacamole:
Let me start with this: it is hard to make a photo of guacamole appealing! With that said, this garbanzo guacamole appetizer is a really great appetizer or snack! I continue to read how adding garbanzo beans/chickpeas or white northern beans to guacamole is a great way to add bulk and offset the calories of the avocados. I have never been a fan of garbanzo beans or chickpeas, but thought I would try it since I had garbanzo beans on hand and 2 very ripe avocados.
