Prep Time: 3 minutes
Cook Time: 2 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes
Equipment: Toaster, mixing bowl, fork
Servings: 1
Instructions:
1. Begin by toasting your slice of whole grain bread to your preferred level of golden brown - this usually takes around 1-2 minutes in a toaster or under a broiler.
2. While the bread is toasting, take a ripe avocado and cut it in half. Remove the pit and scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl.
3. Using a fork, mash the avocado flesh, adding a pinch of salt and pepper to your taste. For an extra zesty flavor, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and mix thoroughly.
4. Once your toast is ready, spread the avocado mixture evenly across the surface.
5. Top the mashed avocado with the halved cherry tomatoes, arranging them neatly.
6. If you enjoy a bit of heat, sprinkle some red pepper flakes over the top.
7. Finally, garnish with fresh basil leaves or microgreens, adding not only a burst of color but a fresh, herbal flavor.
8. Your Avocado Toast with Cherry Tomatoes is now ready to be enjoyed! This dish is best served immediately while the toast is still warm and the avocado is creamy and fresh.
Cooking Tips:
- For an extra nutty flavor, consider using multigrain or seeded bread.
- If you're looking for more protein, top your toast with a poached egg.
