Method
Toast
- 1
Prepare and toast bread
Preheat a skillet over medium heat (or toaster). Lightly brush both sides of the bread slices with olive oil (or spread butter if using). Place slices in the hot skillet or toaster and toast until golden and crisp, about 2–3 minutes per side in skillet or until desired doneness in a toaster. Transfer to a plate.
Avocado topping
- 2
Prep avocado
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. Use a fork to mash to your preferred texture — chunky or smooth.
- 3
Add lemon juice, olive oil, sea salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes to the mashed avocado. Mix well and taste; adjust salt, pepper or lemon as needed. The lemon prevents browning and brightens flavor.
Assembly & finishes
- 4
Divide the avocado mixture evenly between the two toasted bread slices, spreading to the edges.
- 5
Top each slice with microgreens or chopped cilantro and arrange cherry tomato halves if using. Sprinkle crumbled feta or goat cheese and a pinch of everything bagel seasoning for extra savory flavor.
- 6
Finish with a light dusting of flaky sea salt and an extra grind of black pepper or a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
- 7
Serve immediately. Leftover mashed avocado can be stored in an airtight container with plastic pressed directly onto the surface and refrigerated for up to 1 day.
