Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe avocados
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 10 whole cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 small red onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 4 slices whole grain bread
Instructions
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Add the fresh lime juice to the avocado. This will not only enhance the flavor but also help prevent the avocado from browning.
Mash the avocado with a fork until you reach your desired consistency. For a chunky smash, mash less; for a smoother spread, mash more.
Dice the cherry tomatoes into quarters and finely chop the red onion. Add these to the avocado mixture.
Chop the fresh cilantro leaves and add them to the mixture along with black pepper. Stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
In a non-stick skillet, add extra virgin olive oil and heat over medium heat. Once hot, place the whole grain bread slices in the skillet to toast for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Once the bread is toasted, divide the avocado smash evenly across the slices.
Serve immediately for a fresh taste experience.
