Avocado Toast with Microgreens recipe


  • Author: Olivia

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 slices whole-grain bread
  • 1 handful of microgreens
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • Lemon juice (optional)
  • Olive oil (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toast the Whole-Grain Bread: Begin by toasting your slices of whole-grain bread until they are golden brown. This provides a sturdy foundation and a satisfying crunch.
  2. Prepare the Avocado: While the bread is toasting, cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Scoop the flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork until it reaches your desired consistency.
  3. Season the Avocado: Add a splash of lemon juice if you wish to add a tangy flavor, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust these seasonings according to your preference.
  4. Spread the Avocado: Once the bread is toasted to perfection, spread the mashed avocado evenly over the slices, ensuring every bite is packed with flavor.
  5. Add Microgreens: Top the avocado spread with a generous handful of microgreens. This not only adds a visual appeal but also a nutritional boost.
  6. Enhance with Olive Oil: For added flavor, drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the microgreens. This step is optional but recommended for those seeking a richer taste.
