Ingredients
- 1 medium Haas avocado, pitted
- ½ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- Salt and pepper
- Per Slice:
- 1 slice light wheat bread
- 2 slices fresh tomato
- Garlic powder
- 2 basil leaves
Directions- Scoop avocado out of the peel and place in a small mixing bowl. Use a heavy fork to mash the avocado until it is spreadable, but still chunky.
- Add the lemon juice to the avocado, and season lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
- Toast the wheat bread to your liking.
- Spread 1∕5 of the mashed avocado onto the toasted wheat bread. Cover, and refrigerate any unused avocado for up to 3 days.
- Top the avocado toast with 2 slices of fresh tomato, and lightly season the tomato with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Place fresh basil leaves over the tomato before serving.
HELPFUL TIP: This recipe makes enough mashed avocado to prepare 5 slices of avocado toast. If you are preparing all 5 slices at once, you will need about 2 small tomatoes to make the 10 slices of tomato needed.
