Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 slices whole grain or sourdough bread
  • 50g crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: pinch of red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Toast Your Bread: Begin by toasting your preferred bread slices until golden and crisp to provide a sturdy, crunchy base for your toppings.
  2. Prepare the Avocado: Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash lightly with a fork, leaving some chunks for texture. Mix in fresh lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to taste.
  3. Assemble the Toast: Spread the mashed avocado generously over the toasted bread slices to create a creamy foundation.
  4. Add the Feta Cheese: Sprinkle crumbled feta evenly over the avocado layer to add a tangy, salty contrast.
  5. Final Touches: Drizzle extra virgin olive oil on top and finish with a pinch of red pepper flakes for subtle heat if desired. Add extra cracked black pepper to enhance the flavors.

Notes

  • Choose ripe avocados that are soft to the touch but not mushy for the best creamy texture.
  • Toast bread well to avoid sogginess and to add a delightful crunchy texture contrast.
  • Use fresh lemon juice to keep the avocado vibrant and prevent browning.
  • Sprinkle crumbled feta evenly over the avocado instead of feta slices to ensure consistent flavor in every bite.
  • Adjust salt and pepper after assembling to avoid over-seasoning early.
