Ingredients

For the Sandwiches/Spread:
  • fresh bread sliced into 8 to 10 half-inch slices (8-10 slices of bread)
  • 2 ripe avocados pittend and peeled
  • 1/8 tsp salt or to taste (we love sea salt)
  • 1 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Black pepper to taste optional
  • extra virgin olive oil to drizzle over the top
Fantastic Topping options
  • you have to try all of these:
  • eggs sunny side up (yolks loose) I suppose you can scramble them if you wish ;)
  • fresh spinach rinsed and dried
  • Baby tomatoes sliced
  • Fresh cilantro sprigs
  • radishes thinly sliced

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl, mash together 2 ripe avocados. A potato masher is the fastest route.
  2. Stir 1/8 tsp salt (or to taste) and 1 tsp fresh lemon juice into the mashed avocados until well combined.
  3. Lightly toast your sliced bread (if desired) with a small pat of butter until the edges are golden brown.
  4. Add a generous layer of avocado spread over each piece of toast. Add your desired toppings, then drizzle each piece of toast with extra virgin olive oil and top with freshly cracked black pepper. So so good!
