- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add oil to frying pan. Sauté spinach and red bell pepper for 3 minutes, or until spinach is wilted.

Tips
- Try using your leftover avocado in the CYP Avocado Chicken Salad
- To preserve the remaining avocado cover with a few drops of lime or lemon juice to prevent browning, and store in an airtight container for up to 48 hours.
