Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • Bread – 1 slice whole wheat, sourdough, multigrain—whatever you like
  • Ripe avocado – ½ medium about 70–80 g
  • Salt – ¼ teaspoon or to taste
  • Black pepper – a pinch optional
  • Lemon or lime juice – 1 teaspoon optional

Equipment

  • A toaster or pan
  • A knife
  • A fork
  • A plate

Method
 

Toasting the Bread
  1. Toast until the outside is crisp but the inside still bends slightly.
  2. If it snaps completely—it’s probably too much.
  3. But you’ll still eat it. We all do.
Handling the Avocado
  1. Cut it open. Twist. Remove the seed.
  2. Mash it with a fork. Don’t aim for smooth perfection. Texture is personal.
  3. Add salt. Taste it.
  4. Add lemon if it feels flat.
  5. Taste again.
Putting It Together
  1. Spread the avocado on the toast.
  2. Some people like a thick layer.
  3. Some like restraint.
  4. There’s no correct amount.
  5. Eat it while it’s warm.
