It’s a foodie trend that may not last so we better go ahead and enjoy it while we can! 🙂

Avocado toast is on all the trendy restaurant menus and featured on our favorite food shows. You know me, I like avocado so…I’m getting in there and figuring this out for us.

Here’s my take on avocado toast. I know we could be changing this up in all kinds of ways and maybe I will tackle that this year too! (note to self…add avocado experiments to to your to-do list)

This is actually a quick and pretty healthy breakfast if you are running late in the morning or a nice Saturday morning “I’m brunching in my pjs” option too.

Ingredients

Toasted bread

1-2  avocado (depending on size and how much you want to pile on)

lemon juice

cilantro

salt/pepper

fried or poached egg (optional)

Slice your avocado and remove the pit. Slice the avocado in the skin and run your spoon or knife around the edge to loosen.

Put your avocado “meat” in a small bowl. Chop 2 tablespoons of cilantro (or adjust to your taste…or leave out if you hate cilantro).

Squeeze one half of a lemon into the bowl and salt and pepper to taste.

Spread your mixture on your toast and enjoy!

Note: to add more protein and to also make your meal have a little more substance, you can add a fried or poached egg to the top of your avocado toast.

If you like a little spice, add a few red pepper flakes.
