Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Whole grain bread
- 2 large Ripe avocados
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 100 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
Instructions
Start by toasting the whole grain bread slices until they are golden brown and crispy. You can use a toaster or an oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes.
While the bread is toasting, cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
Add the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and ground black pepper to the bowl with the avocado. Use a fork to mash the avocado mixture until slightly chunky.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in halves and set them aside.
Once the bread is toasted, spread an equal amount of the smashed avocado mixture onto each slice of toast.
Top each slice with halved cherry tomatoes and sprinkle with fresh cilantro and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Serve immediately and enjoy your heart-healthy meal!
