Ingredients
- 2 avocado ripe
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice fresh
- sea salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 4 lices bread toasted
- 4 ounces mozzarella cheese sliced and cut into pieces, to fit the bread, fresh
- 1 cup grape tomato halved
- 1/4 cup basil leaves roughly chopped
- balsamic glaze for drizzling
Instructions
- Cut the avocados in half, remove pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Add the lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper, to taste. With a fork, mash the ingredients together, keeping the texture slightly chunky.
- Spread the mashed avocado evenly onto toasted bread slices. Top with fresh mozzarella slices, tomatoes, and basil. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and serve immediately.
- Note-I like to use whole grain bread. If you need the recipe to be gluten-free, use gluten-free bread. If you don't have grape tomatoes, tomato slices will work too!
