These stuffed avocados are crunchy, creamy, zesty, nutty and nutritious. Mung bean sprouts and fennel are the base of the stuffing with chia seeds to soak up the dressing. I really enjoy using pulse sprouts. They are great on so many levels. Textural and tasty plus they are full of essential vitamins.
