Start Your Day with Avocado Toast
Ah, the humble slice of bread. It’s crazy how much you can do with it—dress it up, just add butter, make it savory, or sweeten the deal. How could you ever go wrong with toast in the morning?
I’ve been trying tons of different avocado toasts and this recipe is a combination of many favorite restaurants. You can also add an egg on top; I usually go with a fried egg over-easy but poached is great too.
But I couldn’t just stop at avocado toast for this one so pictured are some sweet combinations as well. Just listen to your heart when it comes to dressing up your toast. I bet you can’t go wrong!
xo Enjoy!
