- ½ cup something crunchy (toasted pumpkin seeds, crumbled tortilla chips, crushed corn nuts, etc…) (optional)

Instructions
- In a medium bowl, add avocados and mash them with a fork. Squeeze out as much water as possible from the thawed/drained spinach and add it to the bowl along with the lemon and salt. Mix to combine, then taste and add more lemon or salt, if needed (this depends on the size of your avocados).
