If you are from NYC, you know, Avocado Toast. Mayo, Chili flakes, maybe a squeeze of lemon. Definitely an egg on top! Here is my creamy dreamy, more nutrient rich and balanced version. I skipped the egg because avocado’s are already high in fat. I usually add alfalfa sprouts for even more veggie goodness, but ya know… rona.
Melissa’s Favorite Avocado Toast
- Whole Grain Bread (favorite Raleigh local is Yellow Dog Bakery)
- Roasted Red Pepper Hummus (favorite NC locals are ROOTS or Ithaca)
- Avocado (duh)
- Red Pepper Flakes
- Black Sea Salt (fancy)
- Cilantro
- Squeeze of Lime
- Sprouts if you have them!
This is a layering thing, guys. No right or wrong. Just stack those ingredients up and enjoy! Happy Brunching!
PS: If your avocados are ripe and you aren’t ready to eat – pop them in the fridge! They will keep for a few days!
