Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 slices sourdough bread
- 1 medium avocado
- 1 tsp red chili pepper flakes
- 2 tsp honey
- pinch salt
- fresh herbs opitonal
Instructions
- Toast slices of bread in the toaster until golden.
- Cut the avocado in half, and remove the pit. Run the knife through the avocado to form small squares, scoop out the flesh, and place it into a bowl. Using a fork, mash the avocado and season with salt.
- Evenly divide the mashed avocado between the 2 slices of toast.
- Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with chili flakes. Serve topped with optional fresh herbs.
Notes
- Squeeze some fresh lemon juice in the avocado mash to help it keep from browning too quickly.
- Don't over toast your bread. Toast until golden brown.
- Keep your bread from becoming soggy by using a butter knife to spread a thin layer of avocado mash.
- Take your toast to the next level by adding some shaved cucumber and thinly sliced tomato.
- Use some Everything But the Bagel seasoning to amp up the flavor.
- Serve with a side of scrambled eggs for added protein.
- If you have extra avocado mash, place in an airtight container and top with fresh lemon juice. Store in the refrigerator, but enjoy within the day before it browns.
- Make it vegan by using maple syrup instead of honey, make it gluten free by using gluten free bread. Increase the fiber by using whole wheat or sprouted wheat bread.
