This recipe comes from Martha Stewart. She created them as an appetizer. I love, LOVE, LOOOOOVE avocados so much, I just use a bigger piece of toast and a bit–okay a LOT–more avocado and voila! Lunch….or dinner…or 2nd breakfast!
Tomato-Avocado Toasts
- 1 avocado, peel & mashed and seasoned with sea salt & freshly ground pepper
- 4 pearl tomatoes (or a handful of grape or cherry tomatoes), diced
- 4-6 pieces of artisan bread toast (Martha, of course, brushes them with olive oil and puts them in the oven to toast…I’m too impatient and put them in the toaster!)
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro (I’m quite sure Martha doesn’t use this much. I’m quite sure I used more–so use as per your taste!)
Spread avocado mash evenly among the pieces of toast. Same for the tomatoes and then cilantro. Top with a bit more pepper, if desired, and serve with cucumber slices (I use Persian because they’re my favorite!)
Bon Appetit, ya’ll!
