Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole ripe avocados
- 2 slices bread slices
- 0.5 whole lime
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.125 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- as desired optional toppings: red pepper flakes, cherry tomatoes, radishes, or microgreens
Instructions
Start by slicing your bread into two pieces if not already sliced. Preferably, use a hearty, whole-grain or sourdough bread for added flavor and texture.
Preheat your toaster or set a skillet on medium-high heat if you prefer to toast your bread on a stove. Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy, approximately 3-4 minutes per side if using a skillet.
While the bread is toasting, prepare your avocado. Using a knife, carefully cut the avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit.
Scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl using a spoon. Discard the skin and pit.
Add the juice of half a lime, salt, and black pepper to the avocado. Use a fork to mash everything together until you reach your desired consistency; either smooth or chunky.
Once the bread is toasted, drizzle a teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil over the warm slices to enhance the flavor.
Evenly distribute the avocado mixture onto the toasted bread slices, spreading it generously with a spoon or fork.
Top with optional toppings such as a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a bit of heat, sliced cherry tomatoes for sweetness, thinly sliced radishes for crunch, or vibrant microgreens for freshness.
Serve immediately while the toast is still warm.
