Cut into the avocado lengthwise until you hit the pit. Rotate the knife around the entire pit until you have two halves. Carefully hit the pit with the knife until it punctures it. Turn the knife to pop out the pit.
Slice a lime in half. While holding a half over a bowl, press the prongs of a fork into the half to squeeze out the juice. Repeat for the second half.
With each avocado half meat side up, sprinkle each half with hemp hearts, lime juice, salt, pepper, and chili flakes.
Eat with a spoon.
Notes:
Avocados
are a great source of monounsaturated fatty acids which are excellent for heart health!
