Toast

Method

Toast

  1. 1

    Preheat and prepare bread

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat or preheat a toaster. Brush both sides of each bread slice lightly with olive oil (or spread butter on one side if using).

  2. 2

    Toast the bread

    Toast the bread slices in the skillet 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp, or toast in a toaster until desired doneness. Remove and keep warm.

Avocado Spread

  1. 3

    Prepare the avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl.

  2. 4

    Mash and season

    Using a fork, mash the avocado to a slightly chunky consistency. Stir in the lemon juice, chopped red onion, sea salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning. If you want heat, add the red pepper flakes and mix.

Assembly & Toppings

  1. 5

    Spread about half of the avocado mixture evenly over each toasted slice of bread.

  2. 6

    Top with halved cherry tomatoes and a small handful of microgreens or arugula if using. Sprinkle crumbled feta and everything bagel seasoning over the top as desired.

  3. 7

    Finish with an extra drizzle of olive oil or a light squeeze of lemon if desired. Serve immediately.
