1 ripe avocado

A pinch of salt and pepper
Optional toppings:
Cherry tomatoes (halved)
Red pepper flakes
Olive oil (for drizzling)
Lemon juice (a squeeze for freshness)
Feta cheese, poached egg, or microgreens
Before We Start
Use ripe avocados: They should feel slightly soft but not mushy.
Toast variety: Experiment with different breads like rye or gluten-free for unique flavors.
Topping ideas: Add protein with a poached egg or smoked salmon for a filling meal.
Freshness: Always use fresh lemon juice and ripe toppings to enhance flavor.
Storage: If you have leftover mashed avocado, store it in an airtight container with plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent browning.
Even Browning: Use evenly sliced bread for consistent toasting.
Add Flavor: For extra flavor, brush the bread lightly with olive oil, butter, or garlic before toasting.
Crispness Levels: A shorter toast time gives softer bread, while a longer time gives crispier toast.
Instructions
Prepare the Avocado:
Step 1: Take a ripe avocado. Use a sharp knife to cut it lengthwise and remove the pit (the seed in the center).
Step 2: Twist the halves in opposite directions to separate. Gently use the knife to remove the pit and scoop the flesh into a bowl.
Step 3: Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth (for a clean, refined texture) or leave it slightly chunky (for a more natural, textured bite).
Season the Avocado:
Step 4: Add a pinch of salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice to the mashed avocado. Mix well.
Toast the Bread:
Step 5: Toast your bread slices (in a toaster, pan, oven, or over a flame) until lightly browned and crispy.
Assemble the Toast:
Step 6: Take the toasted bread and spread the mashed avocado generously onto each slice. Add toppings as desired (endless possibilities), like chili flakes or feta cheese.
Serve and Enjoy:
Step 7: Place the avocado toast on a serving plate and drizzle with olive oil (optional). Enjoy your crunchy, delicious toast!
