I know what you are thinking…is she really doing a post on avocado toast?  Yes, I am!

This new menu item, as simple as it is, has become the latest craze all across California.  It’s silly right avocado on toast, but let me tell you, I love avocado toast!!! I love how diverse it can be, how everyone can create their avocado toast to their likings and I love the health benefits.

For me, I kept the recipe super simple; I added some fresh sliced tomatoes, salt, pepper, mustard seeds and watercress…simply right?   So here is what you need to do, find a ripened avocado, cut it in half

Here are some suggestions for you, starting with just the avocado and toast:

• Add an on top for a great breakfast
• Sliced cucumbers and dill are a nice addition
• Smoked salmon and red onion for a savory treat
• Radishes with lettuce make this a great appetizer

As you can see there are many options, so think outside of the box and have some fun with this one.  Making this at home, I saved me $12 (that’s the going rate for avocado toast out here), and I have to say, it was delicious!
