1
Toast the Bread
Begin by toasting the slices of whole grain bread in a toaster or on a skillet until they are golden brown and crispy.
2
Prepare the Avocado
While the bread is toasting, cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.

3
Mash the Avocado
Using a fork, mash the avocado to your desired consistency. Add in the lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, and mix well.

4
Assemble the Toast
Spread a generous amount of the smashed avocado mixture onto each slice of toasted bread.
5
Add Cherry Tomatoes
Halve the cherry tomatoes and arrange them on top of the avocado spread.
6
Garnish
If desired, sprinkle fresh cilantro or parsley on top for added flavor and color.
