Ingredients
- 1 avocado ripe
- ¼ cup feta cheese
- 1 lemon
- black pepper to taste
- 4 slices bread any flat(ish) Italian style e.g. ciabatta, focaccia, Turkish bread, bruschettini, even French style baguette
- 2.5 ounces smoked salmon (thin slices)
- a few fresh salad leaves I use a mix of fresh green leaves, but any are fine.
Instructions
- Cut 2 thin rounds off one half of the lemon. Cut each in half and set aside.
- In a medium dish, mash up the avocado. Then crumble in the feta and grind in some freshly ground black pepper. Stir in a few squeezes of lemon juice, or add more or less to taste.
- Toast your bread in a toaster. Then top with the avocado-feta mixture and a slice of salmon (fold it a little if necessary).
- Top each bruschetta with a few salad leaves. Twist each of the lemon slices slightly and add those to the top as well. Serve immediately.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- What kind of bread to use: Any kind of fresh and flat(ish) Italian or French bread works.
- You can easily replace the salmon with prosciutto or crispy bacon.
- Note that the avocado feta mixture doesn't keep well so just make as much as you need to eat immediately.
