A simple and delicious avocado toast recipe featuring ripe avocado mashed with lemon juice, drizzled with olive oil, and seasoned to perfection on toasted bread.
Ingredients
- 2 slices of your preferred bread (e.g., multi-grain, sourdough)
- 1 large ripe avocado
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
- Flaky sea salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
- Everything bagel seasoning (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by toasting your chosen bread to your preferred crispness.
- While the bread toasts, halve the ripe avocado and remove the pit. Carefully scoop out the flesh into a small bowl.

- Drizzle each slice with extra virgin olive oil.
- Season with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes if you enjoy a little heat.
- For an added layer of flavor, consider a dusting of everything bagel seasoning.
- Serve immediately and savor this simple yet satisfying creation.
