Instructions
Whizz the peas, olive oil, lemon juice and garlic together in a food processor, then tip into a bowl. Stir through the feta cheese and mint.
Slice the avocado in half, removing the pit, and rub the top of each half with the cut side of a lemon (to stop it going brown).
Pile the pea mixture into the avocado halves, then sprinkle over a little more mint and lemon juice to taste. Grab a spoon and enjoy!
Notes
You could also try spreading the pea mixture on toast to make a crostini or even stirring it through pasta :-)
