Building an Avocado Toast

  • Choosing the bread – denser, moister whole-grain bread works the best for avocado toast. You’ll want thick sliced bread that can withstand heat when toasted.
  • Buying the avocado – choose an avocado that’s a little bit firm with dark green skin.  When you bring it home keep it out on the counter so it can fully ripen.
  • Toppings – when it comes to avocado toast toppings the possibilities are truly endless. Here are six topping combinations to try.

    1. Avocado Toast with Smoked Salmon + Red Onions

    2. Avocado Toast with Tomato Caprese

    3. Avocado Toast with Egg + Herbs

    4. Avocado Toast with Cucumber + Fresh Dill

    5. Avocado Toast with Tomatoes + Basil Pesto

    6. Avocado Toast with Banana + Sunflower Seeds + Honey (my favorite!)

    Those all look great (though I admit I’m scared of the one with banana!). I’m going to try some with cucumbers or tomatoes tomorrow for breakfast. My favourite though, is toast with hummus spread on it, and the avocado chopped and lightly mashed on top. Then I pour some sriracha over everything. So good!

      I know, Sherry….banana combo is definitely a weird combo. Ha ha. But with great taste. I LOVE hummus too, especially on toast! I’m in the midst of working on a recipe for homemade hummus…so hopefully that will come soon 🙂

      WOW! $.88 for avocado! I don’t think I’ve ever seen those kind of prices for an avocado. Lucky you 🙂 I usually pay close to $2.25 for one at my local supermarket :/
