Ingredients
  

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 slices of whole-grain bread
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional toppings: poached egg cherry tomatoes, red pepper flakes, feta cheese

Instructions
 

Step 1: Toast the Bread

  • Toast two slices of whole-grain bread until they are golden and crispy. Whole-grain bread adds fiber and a nutty flavor, making it a perfect base for your avocado spread.

Step 2: Mash the Avocado

  • Slice the ripe avocado in half and take out the pit. Scoop the flesh into a small bowl and mash it with a fork until you achieve your desired consistency. For a chunkier texture, mash lightly, or for a smoother spread, mash thoroughly.

Step 3: Spread the Avocado on Toast

  • Evenly spread the mashed avocado on the toasted bread slices. Make sure to cover the entire surface of the toast for maximum flavor in every bite.

Step 4: Season and Customize

  • Add a sprinkle of salt and pepper to the avocado spread. This is where you can get creative! Enhance your avocado toast with a poached egg, some cherry tomatoes, or a drizzle of olive oil. For a little heat, add red pepper flakes, or for a tangy touch, sprinkle some feta cheese.
