Start by toasting the whole grain bread slices until they are golden and crispy, about 3-5 minutes depending on your toaster settings.
While the bread is toasting, cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl.
Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth yet slightly chunky, then stir in 1 teaspoon of lemon juice to prevent browning.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and set aside.
Once the bread is toasted, spread the mashed avocado evenly over each slice.
Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes on top of the avocado toast.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the tomatoes and sprinkle with a pinch of black pepper for extra flavor.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves for a burst of freshness and aroma.
Serve immediately and enjoy as a delightful low-sodium breakfast or snack.
