avocado toast

Avocado toast on artisian bread topped with tahini, avocado, cherry tomatoes and sprinkled with feta cheese. A cup of tomato soup on the side with a spoon.

I can’t decide if avocado toast is better for breakfast or lunch. For a quick and easy-to-prepare meal, avocado toast has staying power. Besides, it’s wholesome and delicious. Avocados provide a beautiful and neutral-flavored backdrop for many other ingredients, so the possibilities are endless—open your refrigerator and get creative! I keep a loaf of artisan bread in my freezer already sliced for avocado toast mornings.

    The avocado toast is so tasty. Especially when prepared on fresh Anjou bread!

    Oh we’ve been missing out! Our avo-toast is usually just avocado and bread, sometime with tomato. I know we can do better! Love the tahini in this.

    On the avocado toast – I like the idea of buying the bread, slicing and then freezing. We can’t eat the bread fast enough before it gets moldy.
