Pour the frozen peas in a bowl and cover with hot water to defrost quickly, or leave out on the bench for half an hour to defrost. Drain off any water.
Add lemon juice, garlic, olive oil and salt, and mash the peas with a fork until most are crushed fairly well. Add cubed avocado and mash together until blended but with some chunks still remaining. Add herbs and mix through.
Serve on toasted whole grain bread, your favourite whole grain crackers, or in a bowl with some crackers or corn chips.

This smash is best served fresh, or within 30 minutes of making, hence this recipe only being for two. Obviously you can double if you're a family/flat of four.
If you do want to make it for lunches and thus save half for the next day, put in a small container with limited space on top, seal and place in the fridge. The flavour will still be delicious, the green colour just won't be quite as bright.
If you don't have furikake, you can use a sprinkling of sesame seeds and chilli flakes instead.
If you want to try the lime and coriander option, simply swap the lemon with one lime, and the parsley with fresh coriander.
