Instructions
 

Toast the Bread

  • Toast your bread to your desired level of crispiness, either in a toaster or using a skillet.

Prepare the Avocado

Notes

  • Bread Options: You can use any type of bread you prefer, such as sourdough, whole grain, or gluten-free. The heartier the bread, the better it will hold up with the avocado and tomato toppings.
  • Adding Protein: For an added protein boost, you can top your avocado toast with a poached egg or scrambled tofu.
  • Customize Your Toast: Feel free to add your favorite seasonings and toppings, such as garlic powder, balsamic glaze, or feta cheese, to customize the flavor.
  • Leftovers: Avocado toast is best enjoyed fresh. If you have leftover avocado, store it in an airtight container with some lemon juice to prevent browning, and use it for the next day.
