Introduction

The chickpea-avocado mash used as a filling here is prepared and served at room temperature. (It makes a great sandwich spread as well.) Because the fat content of taco shells can vary, look for brands that contain approximately 6 grams or fewer per shell. (You can also use a low carb tortilla...yum) The chickpea-avocado mash used as a filling here is prepared and served at room temperature. (It makes a great sandwich spread as well.)
