Caffeine Free Avocado with Sea Salt
Sometimes the simplest things hit the hardest, and this is proof. A perfectly ripe avocado, split open and dressed with good olive oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon, and a pinch of flaky sea salt is the kind of snack that feels indulgent without any effort at all. The lemon juice brightens the creamy richness of the avocado while the sea salt adds that satisfying crunch on every spoonful. A little black pepper or a pinch of red pepper flakes can round it out if you want a subtle kick. Since every single ingredient here is naturally free of stimulants, you can enjoy this any time of day without a second thought — morning, afternoon, or late evening. It comes together in under two minutes and goes straight from the skin to your spoon, which means minimal cleanup and maximum payoff.

Halve the avocado lengthwise and remove the pit. If the avocado is ripe, the flesh should yield gently to light pressure and the skin should peel away cleanly.
