Avocado… oh how we LOVE you! You are creamy, fueling, and can be transformed into so many different delicious dishes. But our preferred way to eat you is on toast! These different takes on our favorite brunch staple are made for everyone. Whether you’re vegan, in a time crunch, or need something to fill you up for a busy morning, these 3 recipes have got you covered. They make it so you avo-CAN-do all day!

 

RISE ‘N’ SHINE

For the early riser who wants something traditional + delicious...

-Avocado

-Sourdough Bread

-Eggs

-Everything but the Bagel Seasoning (Find it @ Trader Joe’s, Aldi, or Jewel)

-Lemon

Start out by toasting your sourdough bread! Cook your eggs how you like them (my favorite is with a runny yolk). Smash your avocado in a bowl and spread evenly over the toast. Sprinkle with Everything but the Bagel seasoning + squeeze some lemon juice on top!

For a yummy addition, add your favorite cheese on top. I typically like to use shredded sharp cheddar cheese! 

 

VEGGIE LOVERS

For the queens + kings looking to get the most nourishment + fuel from their veggies…

-Avocado

-Lemon

-Salt + Pepper

-Ezekiel Bread (Food for Life brand - find it @ Target or Jewel )

-Tomato

-Cucumber

-Red Onion

-Radish

-Microgreens

As always, toast that ezekiel bread! Mash up your avocado with some lemon juice, salt, + pepper, and spread it on your toast. Slice up your veggies and layer on top of the avocado spread. Sprinkle your microgreens on top! Salt + pepper to taste.

For our meat eating friends, you can add smoked salmon to this recipe for a smooth, melt in your mouth protein punch. Just add on top of the avocado spread before all your veggies!

 

SPICE IT UP

For those who love to hit the ground running in the morning…

-Chorizo

-Eggs

-Avocado

-Lime

-Red Pepper Flakes

-Tortilla/Wrap

-Chihuahua Cheese

Start by cooking your chorizo in a skillet - scrambling eggs in once the chorizo is cooked. Warm up your tortilla or wrap in the microwave or on the stove! Smash your avocado in a bowl - mixing in some lime juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper to taste. Spread your avocado mixture on your warm tortilla/wrap evenly. Add the scrambled eggs with chorizo. Sprinkle with chihuahua cheese + wrap it up!

This is one of my favorite avocado “toast” recipes… It is even my go-to hangover cure after a night out!
