Ingredients
- 2 whole ripe avocados
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices cooked ham slices
- 4 slices whole wheat bread
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 whole cherry tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions
Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper. Mash the mixture with a fork until it's smooth but still a bit chunky.
Drizzle olive oil on the bread slices. Preheat a skillet over medium heat and toast the bread for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
While the bread is toasting, cut the cherry tomatoes into halves.
Once toasted, spread the avocado mixture evenly over each slice of bread.
Place one slice of ham on each piece of avocado toast.
Top each toast with cherry tomato halves, a sprinkle of lemon zest, and finish with a fresh basil leaf for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh avocado toast with ham.
