Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 lemon
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 slices paleo-approved bread
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons red chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (optional)
- 8 cherry tomatoes (optional)
Instructions
Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
Use a fork to smash the avocado until it reaches your desired level of smoothness.
Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice from one half into the smashed avocado. Save the other half for later use if needed.
Add sea salt and black pepper to the avocado mixture and stir well to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once hot, add a tablespoon of olive oil and heat until shimmering.
Place the paleo-approved bread slices on the skillet and toast each side for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Once toasted, remove the bread from the skillet and let it cool slightly.
Spread the smashed avocado mixture generously over each slice of toasted bread.
Drizzle lightly with the remaining olive oil and sprinkle with red chili flakes.
Optionally, garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and halved cherry tomatoes for additional flavor and presentation.
Serve immediately and enjoy your paleo smashed avocado on toast.
