Avocado Toast Recipe (Easy & Healthy)

Ingredients

• 8 to 10 slices garlic bread ((whole wheat) or baguette or french loaf or whole wheat bread)
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (– for brushing or as needed)
• 1 garlic clove (– halved)
• 1 avocado (– medium to large)
• 1 small to medium-sized garlic clove (– minced or finely chopped)
• ½ teaspoon dried oregano (or add as required, opt for preferred herbs instead)
• ¼ teaspoon crushed black pepper (or add as required)
• ¼ teaspoon lemon juice (or add as required)
• salt (add according to taste)

Steps

1. Firstly slice a garlic loaf or a french bread.
2. Then heat a griddle or tawa or skillet. Place the loaf slices on it. Toast them on a low to medium flame.
3. Whilst the bread is getting toasted, we prepare the avocado filling. Take an avocado. Rinse if you want. Then give a cut at the center moving around the entire avocado.
4. We want the avocado in two halves. Remove the seed.
5. With a spoon, scoop out the entire avocado flesh, which is like butter and gets removed easily.
6. Place the scooped avocado flesh on chopping board and then chop. Or you can mash the avocado pulp in a bowl.
7. Add the chopped avocado in a mixing bowl. Also add 1 small to medium garlic clove (finely chopped or minced)
8. Season with oregano (or add as required), crushed black pepper (as required), salt and a few drops of lemon juice. The lemon juice prevents the discoloration.
9. Mix well and keep aside.
10. Once the slices are toasted, then brush some extra virgin olive on top.
11. Halve a garlic and rub the garlic on all the bread slices.
12. Now gently place the avocado filling on the toasted bread slices. If you want you can even sprinkle some red chili flakes.
13. Serve avocado toast as soon as you make them.
