Ingredients
Scale
Toast and Spread
- 2 slices whole grain or sourdough bread
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Toppings
- 1 cup fresh tomatoes, sliced (preferably cherry tomatoes)
- 2 tablespoons dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Toast the Bread: Toast 2 slices of whole grain or sourdough bread until they turn golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Prepare Avocado Mixture: In a bowl, mash the ripe avocados using a fork until smooth but slightly chunky. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine with Feta: Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese to the mashed avocado to create a creamy and flavorful spread.
- Spread the Mixture: Generously spread the avocado-feta mixture evenly on the toasted bread slices.
- Add Toppings: Top each slice with sliced fresh tomatoes and sprinkle dried cranberries over the top for a sweet contrast.
- Drizzle Olive Oil: Drizzle high-quality extra virgin olive oil over each prepared toast for additional richness and flavor. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshness.
Notes
- Use ripe avocados for the creamiest texture and best flavor.
- Cherry tomatoes are preferred for their sweetness but any fresh tomato will work.
- Dried cranberries add a nice sweet contrast but can be substituted with raisins or pomegranate seeds.
- This toast is best enjoyed immediately to prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
- For a vegan version, omit the feta cheese or substitute with a plant-based cheese alternative.
