1
Toast the Bread
Place the slices of whole grain bread in a toaster or on a grill. Toast until golden brown and crispy, about 2-4 minutes depending on your toasting method.
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. Mash the avocado with a fork until it's creamy but still has some texture.
3
Season the Avocado
Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the mashed avocado. Mix well to combine all the ingredients. Adjust seasoning to taste.

4
Spread the Avocado
Once the bread is toasted, remove it from the toaster or grill. Evenly spread the seasoned avocado mixture onto each slice of toast.
5
Add Toppings
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and place them on top of the avocado toast. Sprinkle red chili flakes for a bit of heat. Tear fresh basil leaves and scatter them over the top for added flavor.

6
Plate and Serve
Serve the avocado toast immediately while the bread is still warm. Enjoy as a nutritious breakfast or a light snack.
