1
Toast the Bread
Place the slices of sourdough bread in a toaster or on a grill. Toast until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
2
Prepare the Avocado
While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth with some chunks remaining for texture.
3
Season the Avocado
Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the mashed avocado. Mix well to combine.
4
Prepare the Cherry Tomatoes
While the avocado is being prepared, wash the cherry tomatoes, then slice them in half.

5
Assemble the Toast
Spread a generous amount of the mashed avocado on each slice of toasted sourdough bread.
6
Add Toppings
Top the avocado spread with halved cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with red pepper flakes and any fresh herbs, if using.
