Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices whole grain bread
- 1 ripe avocado
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cherry tomatoes
- 4 fresh basil leaves
Instructions
Toast the slices of whole grain bread in a toaster until they are golden brown and crisp.
While the bread is toasting, cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork until it reaches your desired consistency—smooth or slightly chunky.
Add the lemon juice to the mashed avocado to prevent browning and stir to combine.
Season the avocado with red pepper flakes and black pepper, adjusting the amounts according to your taste preference.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in halves.
Once the bread is toasted, spread the mashed avocado evenly onto each slice.
Top each toast with halved cherry tomatoes.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves to add a fragrant touch.
Serve the avocado toast immediately while the bread is still warm.
