Ingredients

Scale

Avocado Mixture

  • 2 ripe avocados, halved and pitted
  • 1-2 tsp lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Toast Base

  • 2-4 slices sourdough bread, toasted

Toppings

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries, chopped
  • 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped

Garnish (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Avocado: Scoop out the avocado flesh into a bowl and mash it with a fork, or slice it into thin pieces if you prefer. Mix in lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste for a bright and creamy base.
  2. Toast the Bread: Toast your sourdough bread slices until golden and crispy to your desired level. This forms the crunchy foundation of your toast.
  3. Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed or sliced avocado evenly and generously over each piece of toasted bread ensuring every bite has rich avocado flavor.
  4. Top with Fresh Ingredients: Evenly sprinkle the halved cherry tomatoes, crumbled feta cheese, chopped dried cranberries, and chopped walnuts on top of the avocado layer to add a mix of sweet, salty, and crunchy textures.
  5. Finish with Garnish: Add fresh herbs such as parsley or basil on top for a fresh, aromatic punch and to enhance the presentation.
  6. Serve: Serve immediately to enjoy the vibrant flavors and the delightful contrast of textures in this healthy and quick avocado toast.

Notes

  • Use ripe avocados for the best creamy texture and flavor.
  • Adjust the quantity of sourdough slices based on hunger and appetite.
  • Feel free to substitute walnuts with pecans or almonds for different crunchy notes.
  • Optional soaking of feta in olive oil adds richness but can be skipped for lower fat.
  • Add a sprinkle of chili flakes for a subtle heat component.
  • Best served fresh to prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
