Avocado Toast (Healthy, Easy, Quick)
Avocado Toast makes a healthy, filling, simple, and yet delicious meal. Creamy avocado with seasonings spread on the toast is one of the best things!
Ingredients
- 2 bread slices (I have used whole-wheat bread)
- 1 ripe avocado
- Salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Lemon juice to taste
- A pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
- Finely chopped coriander leaves
Instructions
- Toast the bread slices until firm and golden brown. Set them aside.
- Remove the pit from the avocado. Scoop out the flesh of the avocado with a spoon and place it in a bowl.
- Add salt, freshly ground black pepper, and lemon juice.
- Mash the avocado using a fork until it is smooth and everything is well combined. Then, taste the mashed avocado and adjust the seasonings if needed.
- Spread the mashed and seasoned avocado on top of your bread toasts.
- Sprinkle some red pepper flakes and finely chopped coriander leaves.
- You can also top the avocado toast with the toppings of your choice. I have suggested the variations in the post.
- Serve the avocado toast immediately.
Notes
- Bread: Choose the bread of your choice. Toast the bread until it is firm and golden brown to hold the mashed avocado well.
- Consistency: Mash the avocado to a smooth consistency or with some chunks, as you prefer.
- Spices: Instead of red pepper flakes, you can also sprinkle some cayenne pepper or hot paprika.
