MONDAY RECIPE POST - AVOCADO TOAST


No link this week, as this is very simple. I wanted something light for supper. I have seen avocado toast with various toppings for a while now. This is what I have been putting together lately. 


1/2 to 1 avocado

1 scant teaspoon olive oil

1 slice of wheat bread 

(or another favorite) 

1 small sliced tomato

Toasted Sesame Seeds


In a small bowl scoop out the avocado with a spoon and mash with a fork.  Meanwhile, toast your bread.  Spread the avocado over toast. Drizzle with olive oil.  Add the sliced tomato on the top. Sprinkle with desired amount of sesame seeds.  

Serve immediately and enjoy!

I have only just started eating avocado toast.  We usually share an avocado, putting half in a small dish, removing the seed and adding a dash or two of Worcestershire Sauce to each avocado half in the well left by the seed.  

The other way we enjoy is to peel and cube the avocado and add to a salad.  

For the toast I used Dave's Killer Bread - 21 Whole Grain. My son suggested it.  I had a visceral reaction to the name, but he said I shouldn't let that put me off, that it was excellent bread.  There is an interesting story of how this company came to be, as I found out later.  You can read all about it at their website here. They are called a second-chance company and give jobs to people who have served time in prison.  As you read the info you will see how that came about too.

Toppings could be varied and I thought a sliced, hard-boiled egg, or a poached egg, would be nice on the top.

Maybe a drop or two of lemon juice mixed either into the avocado or on top.

A sprinkle of chili flakes would give them a bit of a zip.

If you have any other ideas, perhaps you can leave them in a comment.  

That's about it for this one.
