Ingredients
Scale
Avocado Mixture
- 2 ripe avocados, mashed or sliced
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Toast and Toppings
- 4 slices of whole-grain bread, toasted
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Fresh basil or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocado Mixture: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados, leaving some chunks for texture. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper, then stir gently to combine all the flavors well.
- Toast the Bread: Toast the whole-grain bread slices until they are golden and crispy using a toaster or a broiler to add crunch to your toast base.
- Assemble the Toast: Spread an even layer of the avocado mixture on each toasted bread slice. Then top each with crumbled feta cheese, halved cherry tomatoes, dried cranberries, and roughly chopped walnuts to add a variety of textures and bursts of flavor.
- Drizzle and Garnish: Drizzle the topped toasts with olive oil to enhance the flavors and add richness. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired for a fresh, herbaceous note.
- Serve: Serve the avocado feta toast immediately while the bread is still warm and crisp, enjoying the combination of creamy, crunchy, salty, and sweet tastes all together.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm avocados for the best texture.
- To make it vegan, substitute feta cheese with a plant-based cheese alternative.
- You can toast the bread in a skillet if you don’t have a toaster or broiler.
- Fresh herbs like basil or parsley are optional but add a nice flavor boost.
- Adjust salt and pepper according to taste, especially if using feta which is salty.
