Ingredients
Scale
Avocado Spread
- 2 ripe avocados, mashed or sliced
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Toast & 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 Spread: In a bowl, mash the avocados, keeping them slightly chunky for texture. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper, then stir gently to combine all flavors well.
- Toast the Bread: Toast the whole-grain bread slices until golden and crispy using a toaster or broiler, ensuring a firm base for the toppings.
- Assemble the Toast: Evenly spread the avocado mixture over each toasted slice. Then top each with crumbled feta cheese, halved cherry tomatoes, dried cranberries, and chopped walnuts, layering for a balance of savory, sweet, and crunchy.
- Add Finishing Touches: Drizzle olive oil over the assembled toasts to enhance flavor and moisture. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired to add a fresh herbal note and enhance presentation.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy the avocado feta toast while the bread is still warm and crispy for the best taste and texture experience.
Notes
- Use ripe avocados for the best creamy texture without being too mushy.
- To make it vegan, substitute feta cheese with a plant-based cheese alternative.
- Walnuts can be toasted lightly for extra crunch and flavor.
- Customize toppings by adding a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a dash of balsamic glaze for an extra kick.
- Serve immediately as the toast may become soggy if left too long.
