Instructions
- Toast the bread slices until golden brown and crispy (about 3-4 minutes in a toaster or toaster oven at 350°F). If using a skillet, heat a teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat and toast each side for 2-3 minutes.
- While the bread is toasting, mash avocado in a small bowl until smooth but still a little chunky. If using cream cheese or yogurt, stir gently to soften. Add a pinch of salt or a squeeze of lemon juice to brighten flavors.
- Thinly slice radishes, cucumber, tomatoes, or any fresh veggies. Wash and gently pat dry berries and fresh herbs.
- Spread a generous layer of creamy base over each warm toast slice. Arrange fresh fruits and veggies on top, such as fanned avocado slices or scattered halved cherry tomatoes.
- Sprinkle nuts, seeds, or everything bagel seasoning over the top. Drizzle honey or maple syrup if desired.
- Finish with flaky sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and add microgreens or fresh herbs last. Serve immediately.
Notes
Toast bread just until golden and crispy to hold toppings without sogging. Assemble toasts just before serving to keep bread crisp and ingredients fresh. For prepping ahead, toast bread and store in airtight container; mash avocado just before assembling. Pat watery veggies dry for better crunch. Use sturdy breads like sourdough or multigrain for best texture.
