Ingredients
Instructions
Toast the bread until golden and crispy.
Rub the peeled garlic over the top of the toasted bread while it’s still warm.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Add 1 tsp lemon juice, 1/8 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp pepper.
Mash the avocado with a fork, leaving it a little chunky. Add additional salt to taste (avocado needs quite a bit of salt to taste extra yummy).
Divide the mixture and spread it over the top of each toast. Top with a pinch of red pepper flakes, Everything Bagel Seasoning, or any variations below. Note: You don’t need to add everything listed under each variation and can swap in your favorite ingredients.
