Avocado Toast

I'm always looking for easy and tasty snack options and when I can also incorporate avocados, it's pure genius! Avocados contain monounsaturated fats, which are considered your "good fats" which reduces your bad cholesterol. They also contain numerous vitamins and minerals that your body needs to properly function. Since my avocados ripened today, I decided to try out this simple yet delicious recipe. 

Ingredients
  • 2 slices of whole wheat bread
  • 1/2 avocado
  • Pepper
  • Red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 lemon
  • EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)

Step 1: Toast your bread. While bread is toasting, mash up your avocado to a consistency you like.

Step 2: Spread avocado on bread, sprinkle on some pepper and your red pepper flakes.

Step 3: Drizzle a small amount of lemon and EVOO. 

Step 4: Devour.


I tried this toast for breakfast and paired it with two of my Egg Muffins and a nice glass of Almond milk. Avocados really are the best and can be suitable for any time of day. You can use this as a snack or pair it with eggs and bacon for breakfast, so versatile!! Try it out!!

ENJOY!!
