1
Prepare the Tomatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the cherry tomatoes in half, and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until they are soft and slightly caramelized.
2
Toast the Bread
While the tomatoes are roasting, grill or toast the slices of artisan sourdough bread until golden brown and crispy.
3
Mash the Avocados
In a bowl, scoop out the ripe avocados and mash them with a fork. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste. Optionally, add lemon juice for flavor and to prevent browning.
4
Prepare the Citrus Vinaigrette
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, honey (or maple syrup), salt, and pepper to create the citrus vinaigrette.
5
Assemble the Dish
Spread a generous amount of smashed avocado onto each slice of toasted sourdough. Top with the roasted tomatoes and a handful of mixed greens. Drizzle with the citrus vinaigrette before serving.
