Ingredients
  

  • 1 slice of bread thick-sliced whole-grain bread is my preferred choice
  • 1/2 ripe avocado
  • A pinch of salt
  • Optional: Any of the additional toppings mentioned in this post

Instructions
 

  • Toast your slice of bread until it's golden and firm.
  • Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Use a large spoon to scoop the flesh into a bowl, then mash it with a fork to your preferred texture. Add a pinch of salt (about 1/8 teaspoon) and adjust the seasoning to taste if needed.
  • Spread the mashed avocado onto your toast. Enjoy it as is or add any of the optional toppings suggested in this post (I highly recommend a light sprinkle of flaky sea salt if you have it).

Notes

To make it gluten-free, simply use gluten-free bread. My assistant Megan recommends Canyon Bakehouse 7-Grain Bread, which she finds at Natural Grocers.
