6 (Easy!) Ways to Top Avocado Toast

 Guyyysss….I’m excited about today’s post!!! Maybe because I’ve been wanting to share this with y’all forever or maybe because I have a slight obsession with avocados.

Not to mention all the bright colors and textures.

Testing recipes constantly and making sure everything works and tastes good for you guys is obviously the big picture here but if the pics don’t look good, then who’s gonna wanna eat it? That’s kind of my thinking here.

I’ve been doing this blogging thing for a year now and photography has been the hardest part of it all. I’m still learning so much and sometimes don’t give myself enough credit as I look at everything through a microscope and always find the flaws and how I could’ve done it better.

And then sometimes I have days, where I’m like “I think I’m getting the hang of this…” so this post is one of those days. So, please don’t mind while I enjoy my proud moment here because God knows when the next one will be. ugh.

Avocado though. Let’s talk avocado! Who hates spending a fortune on avocados only to bring them home and find that they are overripe and brown inside? Ummm…that would be me.

That’s my life’s biggest pet peeve. Nothing worse than a brown avocado when you just spent over $2 on one. That’s why I keep telling hubby we need to move to CA..avocados are way cheaper and people are way happier 🙂

I stopped at my local Safeway last week and avocados were 10 for $10. I jumped from joy (in my head of course). Because $1 avocados don’t exist around here.

So of course, I stocked up on every hard avocado I could find, knowing I might be throwing half of them away and hopefully making gazillion different toasts with the rest. Oh and we did! It was an avocado week at mi casa.

Out of the gazillion toasts that my taste tester (aka hubby) and I tried these are the favorites! Banana one is the bomb. Such a weird combo I know, but everything just comes together with that first bite. 

So, here’s what I got going on here:

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!)

 So what are your favorite ways to top an avocado toast? Sure…a little olive oil, salt+pepper, and squeeze of lemon sounds good but when the mood strikes what are you guys loading it up with????
