Once the bread is toasted, drizzle each slice with a little olive oil for added flavor and heart health.
Spread the avocado mixture evenly over the toasted bread slices.
Top the avocado toast with the halved cherry tomatoes, arranging them to cover the surface.
Tear the fresh basil leaves into pieces and sprinkle them over the tomatoes for a fragrant finish.
