Avocado Toast has become a new favorite breakfast/snack. It’s healthy, simple, and delicious and best of all, it’s super easy to make and ready in under 5 minutes.
In fact, this recipe is so simple we can hardly call it a recipe, but we had to share it with you because of how good it is!
This recipe is for simple avocado toast but the possibilities are endless. Sometimes we like to zest up the avocado toast and top it with tomatoes, bacon, beans, jalapeno, spinach, salmon, or pretty much anything else!
To begin, simply toast your bread; You can use any kind of toast or sliced bread you have.
Next, mash an avocado in a small bowl with a fork. Add cilantro, lime, and salt + pepper then spread the mixture on the toasted slice of bread.
Sprinkle with pepper flakes and serve! If you’re having it for breakfast go ahead and top the avocado with an egg cooked any way you like.
Our favorite is a sunny side up but poached, scrambled or even hard-boiled also works well.
